Los Aulopiformes son un orden de peces marinos teleósteos, el único del superorden Cyclosquamata, muchos de ellos habitantes de aguas profundas.[1]

Su nombre procede del griego aulopias, que significa tubería, por su forma.[2]

La característica por la que se agrupan todos ellos en este orden es la estructura faringobranquial.

Algunas especies son hermafroditas.
