About:Swordfish (Xiphias gladius) is a species of pelagic fish found in tropical and temperate seas, the only member of the Xiphiidae family. It can exceed 4 m in length and weigh more than 500 kg. It has a long, rather flattened “beak” (rostrum) which represents one third of the total length of the animal. Swordfish feed on squid and fish. It can reach 90 km/h (24.9 meters/second) at top speed. The term "swordfish" comes from the Italian spadone which means "great sword". It is called swordfish in English and pez espada in Spanish, literally "swordfish"1. In French-speaking countries, swordfish is also called “espadron” in the Seychelles and “swordfish” in Mauritania2. Its binomial name, Xiphias gladius, comes from the Greek ξίφος (xífos) and the Latin gladius which both mean “sword”.
