FBname: Serra Spanish mackerel
Comments: Does not migrate extensively, although some seasonal movement appears to occur off Trinidad.  Feeds largely on fishes, with smaller quantities of penaeid shrimps and loliginid cephalopods.  Most of the catch is consumed fresh, but in Brazil some is salted and some has been canned.  Also utilized smoked and frozen; used for ceviche (Ref. 9987).
