The Sharptail Mola, also known by its scientific name Masturus lanceolatus, is a large ocean sunfish found in tropical and temperate waters worldwide. This unique creature is known for its distinctive long and pointed dorsal fin, which resembles a sharp tail. In addition to being called Sharptail Mola, it is also known as the Hoodwinker Sunfish, Hoodwinker Mola, and Lanceolated Sunfish. The name Hoodwinker comes from the fact that this species had managed to stay hidden from scientists until 2017, when it was finally officially described. Despite its larger size and striking appearance, the Sharptail Mola remains a mysterious and fascinating creature to study.
