They small to medium sized predators and their remains are commonly found as fossils. The characteristic that is most noticeable in all species of Enchodus is the presence of large \"fangs\" at the front of the upper and lower jaws. This fish has occasionally been referred to as the \"Saber-Toothed Herring\" because of the appearance of these unusually large, curved teeth but the genus is not related to modern Herrings. It is possible that the fish may used it\'s unique teeth to capture soft bodied animals like squid (Tusotuethids).
