marien; brak water rifbewoner; oceanodroom (Ref. 51243); diepte 20 - 200 m (Ref. 28016), usually ? - 60 m (Ref. 90102). Tropical; 27°N - 37°S, 29°E - 152°E
Indo-West Pacific: Red Sea (Ref. 12541) south to the southeastern coast of South Africa and east to New Caledonia and Vanuatu. Recently reported from Tonga (Ref. 53797). Due to a widespread confusion with Sphyraena putnamae and Sphyraena qenie, the exact range is uncertain.
Grootte / Gewicht / Leeftijd
Maturiteit: Lm ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 150 cm TL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 2871); common length : 120 cm TL mannelijk / geslacht onbekend; (Ref. 5450); max. gepubliceerd gewicht: 11.5 kg (Ref. 40637)
Dorsale stekels (totaal) : 6; Dorsale zachte stralen (totaal) : 9; Anale stekels: 2; Anale zachte stralen: 7 - 9. Body with dark bars crossing lateral line, each bar oblique in upper half, but nearly vertical in lower half; caudal fin largely yellowish.
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: oval.
Found near prominent current-swept lagoon or seaward reefs (Ref. 9710); also in bays, estuaries and turbid inner lagoons (Ref. 9768). Diurnal and solitary, although the young form schools. Feeds mainly on fishes but also takes squid. Sold fresh, frozen or dried salted. Reports of ciguatera poisoning need confirmation.
