The Chiasmodontidae, snaketooth fishes or swallowers, are a family of deep-sea predatory ray-finned fishes, part of the order Scombriformes, that are found in all oceans.
As suggested by their common name, they are characterized by their ability to engulf prey larger than themselves, due to their highly distensible stomachs.
