Scomberesocidae (Sauries)
Etymology: Cololabis: Greek, kolos = short, truncated + Latin, labia = lips (Ref. 45335); saira: From the Japanese word 'saira' meaning spear (Ref. 6885).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
पारिस्थितिकी
समुद्री; औशिनोड़िरोमस (Ref. 51243); गहराई सीमा 0 - 230 m (Ref. 9339). Subtropical; 67°N - 18°N, 117°E - 108°W (Ref. 54338)
North Pacific: Korea (Ref. 37630) and Japan eastward to Gulf of Alaska and southward to Mexico. Highly migratory species.
Length at first maturity / आकार / वज़न / Age
Maturity: Lm 23.7, range 25 - 28 cm
Max length : 40.0 cm SL पुल्लिंग / अलिंग; (Ref. 39882); अधिकतम प्रकाशित वज़न: 180.00 g (Ref. 56527); अधिकतम सूचित उम्र: 4 वर्षो (Ref. 72462)
पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; पृष्ठीय सौफट रेज़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 9 - 12; गुदा कांटा: 0; ऐनल सौफट रेज़: 12 - 15; जानवरों की रीड़ का जोड़: 62 - 69. Caudal fin broadly and finely forked; pectorals small, truncate, first ray notably flattened (Ref. 6885). Dark green to blue on dorsal surface, silvery below, small bright blue blotches distributed haphazardly on sides; fins on lower part of body pale, others with darkened rays (Ref. 6885). Branchiostegal rays: 12-15 (Ref. 36573).
Adults are generally found offshore, usually near surface, in schools (Ref. 2850). Juveniles associate with drifting seaweed (Ref. 12114, 12115). Feed on small crustaceans, and eggs and larvae of fishes. May glide above the surface of the water when moving away from predators. Prey of Thunnus alalunga and other scombrids (Ref. 9339). Oviparous, with larvae neustonic (Ref. 36573). Eggs are attached to one another and to floating objects via filaments on the shell surface (Ref. 36573). Utilized dried or salted, canned and frozen; also used for fishmeal and pet food; can be pan-fried and broiled (Ref. 9988).
