	<dc:description>Large adults live in sheltered bays as well as deep offshore. Commonly found around shipwrecks in small groups and occasionally forms large schools.  Small juveniles with floating debris and form aggregations as they find each other. They can be pelagic to large sizes and form schools under large Sargassum rafts that usually form after the wet season (Ref. 48637).  Juveniles inhabit shallow protected inner reefs while adults occur in lagoon and seaward reefs to a depth of 20 m or more.  Edible but not esteemed (Ref. 12484).  Not an important game fish (Ref. 12484).</dc:description>

	<dc:description>Ocular band of adult specimens uniformly dark (Ref. 5327).  Yellowish silvery or dusky,  with a black (or dusky) bar through eye and another dark bar from dorsal-fin origin across rear edge of operculum and pectoral-fin base to belly,  where it usually encloses a black blotch,  with another smaller black vertical streak often present at origin of anal fin.

	<dc:description>Amphidromous. Refers to fishes that regularly migrate between freshwater and the sea (in both directions), but not for the purpose of breeding, as in anadromous and catadromous species. Sub-division of diadromous.  Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.Characteristic elements in amphidromy are: reproduction in fresh water, passage to sea by newly hatched larvae, a period of feeding and growing at sea usually a few months long, return to fresh water of well-grown juveniles, a further period of feeding and growing in fresh water, followed by reproduction there (Ref. 82692).</dc:description>

	<dc:description>Large adults live in sheltered bays as well as deep offshore. Commonly found around shipwrecks in small groups and occasionally forms large schools.  Small juveniles with floating debris and form aggregations as they find each other. They can be pelagic to large sizes and form schools under large Sargassum rafts that usually form after the wet season (Ref. 48637).  Juveniles inhabit shallow protected inner reefs while adults occur in lagoon and seaward reefs to a depth of 20 m or more (Ref. 1602). Active carnivore (Ref. 42247).  Young fish are usually seen hovering under coral heads or in the shadows of boat moorings (Ref. 54301).  Also Ref. 58652, 93199.  Forms schools near the surface above sunkeen reefs or pinnacles (Ref. 129713).</dc:description>
