"There are many monsters in the Sea..."
J.R.R. Tolkien[1]

Sea-serpents, also called fish-dragons, were a breed of dragons only mentioned fleetingly in Elvish linguistic writings.[2] No story tells of their appearance in the history of Arda.

Names

In Quenya, the name of the creature is lingwilóke[2] (Sindarin, lhimlug).[3]
