Scombriformes is an order of bony fish containing nine families which were classified under the suborders Scombroidei and Stromateoidei, of the wider grouping known as Perciformes,[1] Fishes of the World, 5th ed. (2016), recognised the order[2] but subsequent workers have suggested that Scombriformes forms part of the larger Pelagiaria clade.[3]
In Betancur-R et al., 2017,[3] the following additional families are placed under Scombriformes, which is considered synonymous with the Pelagiaria clade.
