(Linnaeus, 1758)
– Longspine snipefish; Trombeteiro

Robalo
et al.
(2009)
suggested that the genus
Macroramphosus
is represented by a single species in the northeastern Atlantic,
M. scolopax
,
with different morphotypes interbreeding off the central and southwestern Portuguese coast.
Dyer & Westneat (2010)
indicated the distribution of the species
M. gracilis
as being the western Central Atlantic and this species seems to be sympatric with
M. scolopax
, all around the world.
