Sawfish are mostly found in relatively shallow waters, typically at depths less than 10 m (33 ft), [2] and occasionally less than 1 m (3.3 ft). [61] Young prefer very shallow places and are often found in water only 25 cm (10 in) deep. [4] Sawfish can occur offshore, but are rare deeper than 100 m (330 ft). [2]
Based on fish necropsy data to date, there are no signs of a communicable pathogen, and specimens were negative for bacterial infection. Additional sawfish tissues are still being processed for ...

The smalltooth sawfish (Pristis pectinata) is a species of sawfish in the family Pristidae. It is found in shallow tropical and subtropical waters in coastal and estuarine parts of the Atlantic. [ 1 ] [ 3 ] Reports from elsewhere are now believed to be misidentifications of other species of sawfish.
Pristis is a genus of sawfish of the family Pristidae. These large fish are found worldwide in tropical and subtropical regions in coastal marine waters, estuaries, and freshwater lakes and rivers. [3] Sawfish have declined drastically and all species are considered critically endangered today. [4] [5]
A group of marine scientists may have finally determined what caused dozens of sawfish in Florida waters to exhibit unusual behavior and die off during the last several months.
Capnocytophaga spp. are fusiform Gram-negative bacilli, and they are part of the oral commensal flora. Microscopic observation revealed a high degree of polymorphism with a variation in the size and appearance depending on the strain and culture conditions.
