The order of the gadiformes encompasses a large proportion of fish that are considered of great economic importance to be destined for food, especially in the Northern Hemisphere.
They have, in general, soft-spoke fins, rarely with spines, and sometimes they have chins on the chin.
All the gidids are found in marine waters, from slightly cold to polar, and most of them are found in the North Atlantic.
In the different genera the number of dorsal fins varies from one to three. They have a large head and mouth armed with small teeth and cycloid scales.
Females lay eggs between 500,000 and 5,000,000.
The fry feed on plankton at first and then are piscivorous.
Important species are: hake, whiting, cod, abadeio, lota, etc.
Cod, like other species of great fishing importance, forms huge banks in medium-depth waters, and its meat, from ancient times, is eaten fresh or salted.
Cod fish are very voracious fish that feed on krill and other marine animals, and sometimes chase herring banks and other fish.
