সামুদ্রিক; ঈষৎ লোনা ; মহাসাগরে বিচরনক্ষম (Ref. 51243); গভীরতার পরিসীমা 4 - ? m (Ref. 122150). Subtropical; 60°N - 13°S, 18°W - 36°E
Eastern Atlantic: Oslo, Norway south to Dakar, Senegal but the range is centered in the southern Mediterranean Sea. Not known from Madeira, the Canary Islands or Cape Verde.
Length at first maturity / আকৃতি / ওজন / Age
Maturity: Lm 75.0, range 70 - 80 cm
Max length : 130 cm FL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 168); common length : 90.0 cm FL পুরুষ/ লিঙ্গ অনিধর্ারিত ; (Ref. 168); সবের্াচ্চ প্রকাশিত ওজন : 13.1 kg (Ref. 168)
পৃষ্ঠীয় কাঁটা (মোট ) : 12 - 14; পৃষ্ঠীয় নরম পাখনা দন্ড (মোট ) : 12 - 15; পায়ূর নরম পাখনা্তুন্ড: 14 - 16. Mouth rather large, upper jaw reaching to hind margin of eye. Laminae of olfactory rosette 25 to 28. Interpelvic process small and bifid. Body naked behind the well developed corselet. Swim bladder absent. Vertebrae 17 or 18 precaudal plus 19 to 21 caudal, total 37 to 39. Anterior three quarters of first dorsal fin black.
Adults are neritic, confined primarily to temperate waters, but juveniles may be encountered in waters of up to 30°C. Form small schools at the surface so that the first dorsal fin stands out of the water like that of sharks, also frequently associated with birds. Feed on small fishes, especially sardines, anchovies, jacks, mackerel, bogue and others. Eggs and larvae are pelagic (Ref. 6769). Marketed canned or frozen.
A female weighing 5 or 6 kg may carry some 500 to 600,000 eggs which are spawned in portions.
