Trophic Strategy

provided by Fishbase
Prefers banks and deep slopes (Ref. 122680). Is an opportunistic bottom feeder preying on fish, mollusks and crustaceans. Reported to exhibit suspension feeding (ram filtering) like other carangid species (Ref. 30206). In New Zealand, studies indicate that adult fish may move between demersal and pelagic habitats on a seasonal basis (Ref. 5961). At 2-3 months of age, when about 4 cm long, juvenile fish move into shallow inshore waters (Ref. 27733).

Biology

provided by Fishbase
Adults occur in bays and coastal waters, including estuaries (Ref. 9563). Juveniles usually inhabit estuaries, bays and shallow continental shelf waters, while adults form schools near the sea bed on the continental shelf (Ref. 6390). Schools are found at the surface, in mid-water and on the bottom and are often associated with reefs and rough bottom (Ref. 9072). Schools are sometimes mixed with Caranx koheru and Arripis trutta (Ref. 9072). Feed on plankton by ram-filtering and suction feeding and on bottom invertebrates (Ref. 9072, 30206). Eggs are pelagic (Ref. 4233). Cultured only in Japan. (Ref. 4931). One of the best table fish 'being indeed the salmon of St. Helena' (Ref. 5288).

White trevally

provided by wikipedia EN

The white trevally (Pseudocaranx dentex), also known as striped jack,[3]) is a jack of the family Carangidae widespread in tropical and warm temperate areas between 40°N and 47°S, in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, Indian, and Pacific Oceans. It has a deep body and a greenish colour with metallic overtones and a dark spot above the gills. The fins are yellow. Trevally are strong fighters and the flesh is good to eat if a little dry. It is often used as cut bait. Its maximum size is about 120 cm.

In New Zealand, this trevally is known by the Māori as araara, and is generally confined to waters north of Cook Strait, although it sometimes reaches as far south as Otago in the summer.

Relationship with humans

The IGFA all-tackle world record for the species sits at 15.25 kg (33 lb 10 oz) caught near Tokyo, Japan in 1998.[4]

Description

provided by World Register of Marine Species
Occurs in bays and coastal waters, including estuaries (Ref. 9563). Forms schools (Ref. 4887) which are sometimes mixed with other species such as @Caranx koheru@ and @Arripis trutta trutta@ (Ref. 9072). Schools are found at the surface, in mid-water and on the bottom and are often associated with reefs and rough bottom (Ref. 9072). Commercially cultured in Japan. One of the best table fish 'being indeed the salmon of St. Helena' (Ref. 5288). On the bottom it feeds on a wide range of invertebrates. Surface schooling fish prey on plankton, particularly euphausids (Ref. 9072).
