Most species fed on plankton, had numerous tiny teeth, and were covered with tiny oval scales, approximately 1.2 millimeters in diameter. Many fossilized specimens preserve details and impressions of soft tissues. <em>Lycoptera<\/em> specimens are commonly found fossilized in large groups that were buried together rapidly in fine lake sediments, likely due to mass mortality events caused by the <em>upwelling<\/em> of anoxic waters during late autumn and winter. This suggests that they were gregarious animals, gathering in large shoals.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32789\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32789\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-32789 size-medium\" title=\"Lycoptera fish illustration\" src=\"https:\/\/dinoshop.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/Lycoptera_reconstruction-300x139.jpg\" alt=\"Lycoptera fish illustration\" width=\"300\" height=\"139\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32789\" class=\"wp-caption-text translation-block\">Illustration of the fish Lycoptera \u2013 artist PaleoEquii, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lycoptera#\/media\/File:Lycoptera_reconstruction.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wikipedia<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mceTemp\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lycoptera erau pe\u0219ti mici de ap\u0103 dulce care au tr\u0103it \u00een timpul Cretacicul inferior, acum aproximativ 125-113 milioane de ani, \u00een China, Coreea de Nord, Mongolia \u0219i Siberia.
