Acipenser is a genus of sturgeons . With 17 living species (others are only known from fossil remains), it is the largest genus in the order Acipenseriformes . The genus is paraphyletic , containing all sturgeons that do not belong to Huso , Scaphirhynchus ,or Pseudoscaphirhynchus , with many species more closely related to the other three genera than they are to other species of Acipenser . They are native to freshwater and estuarine systems of Eurasia and North America, and most species are threatened .[2] Several species also known to enter near-shore marine environments in the Atlantic, Arctic and Pacific oceans.
This is an ancient genus, with fossil species known as far back as the Late Cretaceous . In fact, the fossils of two species (A. praeparatorum and A. amnisinferos ) are known from mass mortality assemblages immediately following the Chicxulub impact , the beginning of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event .[3]
