    There have also been sightings of E. nacurates near Long Island, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and traveling up the Hudson River attached to a host (Smith 1997). Echeneis naucrates can be easily spotted due to the sucking disc on top of its head.
    Echeneis naucrates are not listed in IUCN, CITES appendices, or the United States Endangered Species Act list. Sharksuckers are very common in various oceans. They interact with many other organisms and depend on them for survival (Tarleton 1903). Sharksuckers were well known to the ancient Greeks, who greatly disliked them.
    Echeneis naucrates can be easily spotted due to the sucking disc on top of its head. Its sucking organ consists of numerous pairs of crests, which originated from a highly modified spiny dorsal fin. This sucking disc is capable of producing a strong vacuum that the species uses to attach to their hosts.
    Echeneis naucrates commonly swim in groups. Sharksuckers are found attached tightly to their hosts from the beginning of their lives (i.e. sharks, snappers, dolphins, turtles, and whales) (Hoese 1977). They are dependant on other organisms in the oceans for their own survival.
