Abstract

Kılıç balığı, üst çenesindeki kılıca benzer keskin ve çok uzun uzantıdan dolayı adını rostrumundan (gaga) almıştır. Görünüşü ile son derece tehlikeli ve yırtıcı bir özellik gösterir. Tehlike anında kullandığı tek silah kılıcıdır. Bu kılıçla 30 cm kalınlığındaki ahşabı delebilen kılıç balığı, teknelere bile rahatlıkla saldırabilir. Kılıç balığı üzerine yapılan birçok araştırmanın derlenmesinden oluşturulan bu çalışma, kılıç balıklarının bazı ilginç davranışlarını sunmaktadır. Bunlar arasında, yatay-dikey hareketleri, beslenme, saldırı, güneşlenme ve kur yapma davranışları üzerinde durulmuştur.
