Cheilopogon dorsomacula (Fowler 1944)

Oceanodromous. Migrating within oceans typically between spawning and different feeding areas, as tunas do. Migrations should be cyclical and predictable and cover more than 100 km.

Epipelagic in near-shore waters, never spread to open sea. May leap out of the water and glide for considerable distances above the surface (Ref. 9300).
