Indo-Pacific: Red Sea and east coast of Africa to the Hawaiian and Marquesan islands, north to southern Japan (Ref. 559) and the Ogasawara Islands, south to northern Australia. Hybrid with Caranx melampygus found in Hawaii (Ref. 58422).
Longueur à la première maturité / Taille / Poids / Âge
Maturité: Lm 60.0  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 170 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 9710); common length : 100.0 cm TL mâle / non sexé; (Ref. 5213); poids max. publié: 80.0 kg (Ref. 4795)
Épines dorsales (Total) : 9; Rayons mous dorsaux (Total) : 18 - 21; Épines anales: 3; Rayons mous anaux: 15 - 17; Vertèbres: 24. This species is distinguished by the following characters: gill rakers (including rudiments) 5-7 + 15-17 = 20-24; breast naked ventrally, typically with a small to large patch of prepelvic scales; colour in life of adults, head and body silvery grey to black above, usually paler below; fins usually uniformly grey to black, fish from turbid coastal waters often with yellow fins, the anal fin usually brightest (Ref. 9894).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: compressed.
Adults are pelagic over sand and rock (Ref. 58302). They occur singly and inhabit clear lagoon and seaward reefs (Ref. 9710). They feed on crustaceans (like crabs and spiny lobsters) and fishes at night (Ref. 4887). Juveniles are found in estuaries. Large individuals may be ciguatoxic. The largest trevally reaches 1.7 m in length and a weight of over 60 kg (Ref. 48635). Spawning occurs on shallow seaward reefs and offshore banks (Ref. 37816). Sold mostly fresh and dried salted.
