Atlantic, Indian and Pacific: generally circumglobal in temperate waters of the southern hemisphere. More common between 30°-40°S, but more northerly to 15°S near Africa and to near equator off Ecuador along South American west coast (particularly the young and juveniles). Highly migratory species.

Kurzbeschreibung Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie

Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 10 - 12; Afterflossenstacheln: 0; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 12 - 14; Wirbelzahl: 64 - 68. Presence of toothless bill-like jaws, and finlets posterior to the dorsal and anal fins.

An epipelagic, gregarious species. Occurs in surface waters of the open sea; occasionally enters bays and inlets (Ref. 9563). Flesh is highly esteemed (Ref. 6617) but large schools are too sporadic to be of commercial importance (Ref. 6531). Feeds on small planktonic organisms, preyed upon by yellowfin tuna, Cape gunnets, marine mammals. Migrates from spawning areas to cool temperate and plankton-rich waters (Ref. 36731).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 14.2 - 21.3, mean 18.2 °C (based on 1430 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.6562 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.

Widerstandsfähigkeit (Ref. 120179): mittel, Verdopplung der Population dauert 1,4 - 4,4 Jahre. (tm=3).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate vulnerability (44 of 100).

Preiskategorie (Ref. 80766): Unknown.
