It's no more removed from the characins than are ATF. ATF are Alestids, not characins proper. Odoes are Hepsitids. For that matter, the South American pike characins included are from Ctenoluciidae, also equally removed from the characins proper.i was thinking on adding it, but it's an Characiform, not an characin
Thanls for those explanations, but now i have to find a way to add it ^^It's no more removed from the characins than are ATF. ATF are Alestids, not characins proper. Odoes are Hepsitids. For that matter, the South American pike characins included are from Ctenoluciidae, also equally removed from the characins proper.
To be techincal, the Characiformes should be considered the parent group. IMO, odoe should be included.
