The sea toads and coffinfishes are a family of deep-sea anglerfishes known as the Chaunacidae.These are bottom-dwelling fishes found on the continental slopes of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans, at depths to at least 2,460 m (8,070 ft). Of the two genera in the family, Chaunacops typically occurs at deeper depths than Chaunax, but with considerable overlap. They have large, globose bodies and short, compressed tails, and are covered with small, spiny scales.
