Gonorynchus is a genus of long thin gonorynchiform ray-finned fish, commonly called beaked salmon or beaked sandfish that live on sandy bottoms near shorelines. There are five known extant species which are placed in this genus.[1] All have a distinctive angular snout (hence the name) that the fish use to dig themselves into the sand. A swim bladder is absent.[2]

The most widespread species is Gonorynchus gonorynchus, found in scattered locations worldwide. It can reach up to Шаблон:Convert in length. It is a nocturnal fish, feeding on invertebrates at night and burrowing into sand or mud during the day.[3]

Beaked salmon are fished commercially in some areas. The flesh of Gonorynchus greyi, found around Australia and New Zealand, is reported to be "firm and of good flavour".[4]
