Beloniformes is an order composed of six families (and about 264 species) of freshwater and marine ray-finned fish: Adrianichthyidae (ricefish and medakas) Belonidae (needlefish) Exocoetidae (flyingfishes) Hemiramphidae (halfbeaks) Scomberesocidae (sauries) Zenarchopteridae (viviparous halfbeaks)
With the exception of the Adrianichthyidae, these are streamlined, medium-sized fishes that live close to the surface of the water, feeding on algae, plankton, or smaller animals including other fishes. Most are marine, though a few needlefish and halfbeaks inhabit brackish and fresh waters.
