carangoides is a genus of tropical to subtropical marine fishes in the jack family , carangidae .

they are small - to large-sized , deep-bodied fish characterised by a certain gill raker and jaw morphology , often appearing very similar to jacks in the genus caranx .

they inhabit the subtropical and tropical regions of the indian , pacific , and atlantic oceans , often occupying coastal areas , including reefs , bays , and estuaries , rarely venturing far offshore .

they are all predatory fishes , taking a variety of smaller fishes , crustaceans and cephalopods as prey .

the genus was first erected in 1851 by pieter bleeker for an unknown taxon and currently contains 21 species .

many make up significant proportions of various fisheries , although a number of ciguatera cases have been attributed to them .

carangoides bleeker ( carangidae , perciformes ) is a genus comprising at present 21 species of marine fishes that inhabit the tropical and subtropical regions of the indian , pacific and atlantic oceans [ 14 ] . in 2009 and 2010 , during extensive studies of the parasites of marine fishes in new caledonian waters , specimens of four species of carangoides were examined . since no data on the parasites of carangoides spp . from off new caledonia were available , the newly obtained helminthological material has provided the first information from this zoogeographically interesting region .
carangoides coeruleopinnatus is commonly found over deeper coastal reefs ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) , sea grass beds ( satapoomin 2011 ) , and sand bottoms near reefs between 10 - 25 m in depth ( allen and erdmann 2012 ) . however , due to its rather sluggish nature , carangoides coeruleopinnatus is rarely found close to the shore ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) . carangoides coeruleopinnatus is generally solitary ( kuiter and tonozuka 2001 ) , though , known to occur in small groups ( allen and erdmann 2012 ) . the recorded maximum total length for c . coeruleopinnatus is 41 cm ( allen and erdmann 2012 ) .

the finding of one female specimen of this species , reported as capillariidae gen . sp . 3 , in new caledonian waters was recorded by moravec & justine [ 40 ] ; however , the host reported as carangoides oblongus ( cuvier ) was in fact c . dinema [ 12 ] .

all the above - mentioned forms are considered to represent one and the same species of raphidascaris railliet & henry , 1915 , which attains full maturity in carangoides spp . the presence of characteristic , anteriorly united lateral alae in fourth - stage larvae shows that this currently undescribed species belongs to the subgenus ichthyascaris wu , 1949 .

a green to bluish - green trevally becoming silver below , with or without small golden to dark orange spots ( usually less than 30 ) scattered on the sides , olive green dorsal , anal , caudal and pelvic fins , and often white tips on the soft dorsal and anal fins . juveniles to 200 mm are silver to silvery - green with a few scattered golden spots on the side , and a dark line running obliquely through the eye that fades with age . this species is often misidentified as carangoides fulvoguttatus .

all species of johnstonmawsonia were described to have no teeth in the prostom . the present specimen has no anterior prostomal teeth , but its prostom is provided with six minute , more posteriorly located denticles , which are visible only with the use of sem . however , it should be remarked that none of the johnstonmawsonia spp . has so far been studied by sem ( except for the poor quality sem micrograph of the cephalic end of j . porichthydis [ 68 ] ) . therefore , it is not currently clear whether the presence of small posterior prostomal denticles is a generic feature in johnstonmawsonia or it is only a character of an apparently undescribed congeneric species parasitising carangoides fulvoguttatus .
parukhin [ 51 – 53 ] reported p . carangi from 12 species of carangid fishes ( including two carangoides spp . ) from the western part of the indian ocean ( monar bay , arabian sea near oman , gulf of aden , red sea , off southeastern coast of africa ) , whereas p . decapteri was recorded from the north pacific ocean near japan [ 29 ] . although specimens of the present material may belong to one of these two species ( which , however , may be identical to each other ) , their poor original descriptions and principally the absence of a male in our material do not allow us to assign the new caledonian specimens to a species .
based on this material , digeneans [ 4 , 9 – 12 ] and trypanorhynch cestodes [ 8 ] have already been recorded . regarding the parasitic nematodes , moravec & justine [ 40 ] mentioned the finding of the unidentified capillariid female , capillariidae gen . sp . , from c . dinema bleeker ( erroneously reported as c . oblongus ( cuvier ) – see bray & justine [ 12 ] ) , and shamsi et al . [ 64 ] recorded four ascaridoid larval types , anisakis type i , raphidascaris type and terranova types i and ii , in five carangoides spp . results of the evaluation of nematodes collected from four species of congeneric hosts from off new caledonia are presented herein .
with a deep , flattened , streamlined body , the orange spotted trevally ( carangoides bajad ) is a powerful , fast - swimming predatory fish of the jack family ( carangidae ) ( 2 ) ( 3 ) . this carnivorous fish is also recognised by its deeply - forked tail fin , low dorsal fin with elongated rays , and naked patch on the middle of the belly ( 2 ) ( 3 ) . this beautiful fish is typically silvery - grey in colour with a scattering of conspicuous , bright orange - yellow spots along the sides ( 2 ) ( 4 ) ( 5 ) . it does , however , display the remarkable ability to change its colour to become almost entirely orange , although the spotting still shows through ( 4 ) .

to date , 10 species of raphidascaris ( ichthyascaris ) are known as parasites of marine fishes [ 72 ] . of these , five species were reported from the south pacific ocean in the australian region : r . ( i . ) fisheri ( hooper , 1983 ) , r . ( i . ) gymnocraniae ( bruce , 1990 ) and r . ( i . ) sillagoides ( bruce , 1990 ) in australian waters and r . ( i . ) etelidis moravec & justine , 2012 and r . ( i . ) nemipteri moravec & justine , 2005 from off new caledonia [ 13 , 39 , 41 ] . however , none of the raphidascaris ( ichthyascaris ) spp . has so far been described from fishes of the family carangidae . therefore , it can be assumed that the nematodes parasitising carangoides spp . in new caledonian waters belong to a new species .
based on their morphology , the present hysterothylacium larvae from c . fulvoguttatus cannot be assigned to any of the congeneric larval types of shamsi et al . [ 63 , 64 ] , all of which were reported from non - carangid fishes . it is not clear whether the present hysterothylacium larvae may attain full maturity in c . fulvoguttatus , serving thus as the definitive host , or whether this fish is only utilised as the paratenic host . the only two species reported from carangid fishes are h . chorinemi ( parukhin , 1966 ) , recorded from atule mate ( cuvier ) , caranx sexfasciatus quoy & gaimard and scomberoides lysan ( forsskål ) ( all carangidae ) in the south china , arabian and red seas and off the southeastern coast of africa [ 50 , 53 ] , and h . carangis ( kalyankar , 1971 ) , described from carangoides malabaricus ( bloch & schneider ) off india [ 13 , 26 ] .
common names : pompano ( english ) , jack ( english ) , cocinero ( espanol ) , jurel ( espanol ) , palometa ( espanol ) , pámpano ( espanol ) carangoides otrynter ( jordan & gilbert , 1883 ) threadfin jack , thread pompano body deep , compressed ; head profile angular ; both jaws with a band of teeth , at least at the front ; gill rakers on first arch ( excluding rudiments ) 15 - 17 + 21 - 23 ; dorsal rays viii + i , 18 - 19 ; anal rays ii + i , 16 - 17 ; elongate and filamentous dorsal and anal lobes ; dorsal and anal fins not followed by finlets ; pectoral fins longer than head ; lateral line anteriorly with moderate arch , the curved part about equal to straight part ; straight rear part of lateral line with 0 - 15 scales , followed by 40 - 52 small scutes ( large , hard spiny scales ) ; a large isolated scaleless area covering front of breast and extending up onto base of pectoral fins . generally silvery to silver grey ; an elongate black spot in the upper of the operculum ; small dark blotches between bases of dorsal rays . size : grows to 60 cm . habitat : coastal pelagic . depth : 0 - 100 m . southern baja and the central gulf of california to ecuador , including the revillagigedos , galapagos and malpelo .
by the body length 5 . 1 mm , the present male resembles only that of p . selaris ( 5 . 3–5 . 5 mm ) , whereas the males of other three species are distinctly shorter ( 1 . 5–3 . 3 mm ) . moreover , both p . dispar sp . n . and p . selaris possess a dorsal reflexed barb at the tip of the gubernaculum , which is absent in other species . however , the new species differs from p . selaris in having conspicuously unequal spicules ( length ratio of spicules 1 : 1 . 28 vs . 1 : 1 . 03–1 . 04 ) , a different shape and structure of the gubernaculum ( presence vs . absence of a dorsal protuberance ) and a more posterior location of the oesophageal cell nucleus ; in addition , it was collected from a fish belonging to a different genus ( carangoides vs . selar ) . males of the remaining four philometrid species from carangids are not known and , consequently , cannot be compared with p . dispar ; however , these species can be separated based on the different genus of their type host and their geographical distribution . the allocation of the new species to philometra is provisional ; present philometrid genera are mostly based on the morphology of gravid and subgravid females , whereas males of some genera ( e . g . caranginema , philometra and philometroides ) are unidentifiable to genus [ 42 ] .
parasitological examination of marine perciform fishes belonging to four species of carangoides , i . e . c . chrysophrys , c . dinema , c . fulvoguttatus and c . hedlandensis ( carangidae ) , from off new caledonia revealed the presence of nematodes . the identification of carangids was confirmed by barcoding of the coi gene . the eight nematode species found were : capillariidae gen . sp . ( females ) , cucullanus bulbosus ( lane , 1916 ) ( male and females ) , hysterothylacium sp . third - stage larvae , raphidascaris ( ichthyascaris ) sp . ( female and larvae ) , terranova sp . third - stage larvae , philometra dispar n . sp . ( male ) , camallanus carangis olsen , 1954 ( females ) and johnstonmawsonia sp . ( female ) . the new species p . dispar from the abdominal cavity of c . dinema is mainly characterised by the body length ( 5 . 14 mm ) , the lengths of markedly unequal spicules ( 163 and 96 μm ) and gubernaculum ( 102 μm long ) provided with a dorsal protuberance and a small , reflexed dorsal barb on its posterior portion . the finding of c . bulbosus represents the first record of this parasite a century after its discovery ; the first study of this species by scanning electron microscopy ( sem ) enabled detailed redescription . the finding of johnstonmawsonia sp . in c . fulvoguttatus is the first record of a rhabdochonid nematode from a host belonging to the carangidae family . johnstonmawsonia africana moravec & puylaert , 1970 and j . campanae puylaert , 1973 are transferred to prosungulonema roytman , 1963 as p . africanum ( moravec & puylaert , 1970 ) comb . n . and p . campanae ( puylaert , 1973 ) n . comb .
l’examen parasitologique de poissons perciformes marins appartenant à quatre espèces de carangoides , c . chrysophrys , c . dinema , c . fulvoguttatus et c . hedlandensis ( carangidae ) de nouvelle - calédonie a révélé la présence de nématodes . l’identification des carangidés a été confirmée par barcoding du gène coi . les huit espèces de nématodes trouvées étaient : capillariidae gen . sp . ( femelles ) , cucullanus bulbosus ( lane , 1916 ) ( mâles et femelles ) , hysterothylacium sp . ( larves de troisième stade ) , raphidascaris ( ichthyascaris ) sp . ( femelles et larves ) , terranova sp . ( larves de troisième stade ) , philometra dispar n . sp . ( mâle ) , camallanus carangis olsen , 1954 ( femelles ) et johnstonmawsonia sp . ( femelle ) . la nouvelle espèce p . dispar , de la cavité abdominale de c . dinema , se caractérise principalement par la longueur du corps ( 5 . 14 mm ) , les longueurs des spicules sensiblement inégales ( 163 et 96 μm ) et un gubernaculum ( 102 μm de long ) montrant une protubérance dorsale et un petit ardillon dorsal orienté vers l’arrière sur sa partie postérieure . la trouvaille de c . bulbosus représente la première mention de ce parasite , un siècle après sa découverte ; la première étude de cette espèce par meb a permis une redescription détaillée de l’espèce . la découverte de johnstonmawsonia sp . chez c . fulvoguttatus est la première mention d’un nématode rhabdochonidae chez un hôte appartenant à la famille carangidae . johnstonmawsonia africana moravec & puylaert , 1970 et j . campanae puylaert , 1973 sont transférés vers prosungulonema roytman , 1963 comme p . africanum ( moravec & puylaert , 1970 ) n . comb . et p . campanae ( puylaert , 1973 ) n . comb .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
justification : this species is widespread and relatively common throughout the indo - west pacific . this species is commercially harvested for human consumption , is sometimes taken as by - catch in trawl fisheries and is also a major baitfish species in parts of its range . however , there have been no observed or suspected declines in the population of this species due to exploitation , and there are no other known major threats . therefore , this species is listed as least concern .
this species occurs along the continental shores of the indian ocean from east africa to the southwestern red sea and persian gulf , east to fiji , north to the ryukyu islands , south to australia ( lieske and myers 1994 ) new caledonia and the chesterfield bank ( r . myers pers . comm . 2016 ) . insular coastal localities in the indian ocean include madagascar , comoros , the seychelles ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) , reunion and mauritius ( r . myers pers . comm . 2016 ) . the depth range for this species is 30 to 90 m ( smith - vaniz 1999 ) .

this species is relatively common throughout much of its range ( w . smith - vaniz pers . comm . 2015 ) .
this species is caught as bycatch in shrimp trawl fisheries throughout the persian gulf ( j . bishop , f . kaymaram , and s . hartmann pers . comm . 2013 ) . in iran , total landings are in negligible amounts ( less than 1 mt ) ( f . kaymaram pers . comm . 2013 ) . between 2001 and 2002 , paighambari and daliri ( 2012 ) sampled shrimp trawl fisheries by - catch composition in the bushehr province ( iranian waters ) . during the two fishing seasons , 31 . 896 and 28 . 970 kg of this species were collected as by - catch , which comprised of 0 . 192 and 0 . 22 % of the total catch , respectively . cpue was determined to be 0 . 307 and 0 . 186 kg / h , respectively ( paighambari and daliri 2012 ) . raeisi et al . ( 2011 ) conducted a study on the bycatch of the cutlassfish trawl fishery in the bushehr waters , persian gulf . this species occurred in 82 % of trawls with a mean biomass of 2 . 7 kg / h ( + / - 0 . 9 s . e . ) and a mean catch rate of 1 . 1 individuals / h ( + / - 0 . 24 s . e . ) . raeisi et al . ( 2011 ) reported this species contribution to the bycatch was 2 . 8 % in weight and 0 . 2 % in the number of individuals collected . between 2009 and 2010 , hosseini et al . ( 2012 ) conducted a study on the bycatch of the cutlassfish trawl fishery in bushehr and hormozgan waters ; in bushehr waters , this species occurred in 82 % of trawls , and in hormozgan waters , this species occurred in 20 % of trawls .
this species is abundant in omani waters , being caught regularly along the coast from the southern arabian sea to the gulf of oman and the persian gulf ( al - abdessalaam 1995 ) . a . govender ( pers . comm . 2013 ) determined the omani stock of this species was under - exploited with substantial room for development . however , instead an industrial fishery , a traditional fishery should be developed to reduce the risk of growth overfishing ( a . govender pers . comm . 2013 ) .
this species inhabits open waters of coastal reefs ( lieske and myers 1994 ) and occurs to depths of 90 m ( smith - vaniz 1999 ) . juveniles are found in inshore areas , including estuaries . the maximum recorded total length ( tl ) is 77 cm ( al - rasady et al . 2013 ) . al - rasady et al . ( 2013 ) estimated this species longevity to be 16 years . this species occurs to depths of 90 m , but most abundant between 30 and 60 m ( smith - vaniz 1999 ) . this species diet consists of small demersal fishes and epibenthic crustaceans ( smith - vaniz 1999 ) . this species is gonochoristic ( graham and castellanos 2005 ) , each individual is either male or female throughout its lifetime . males attain sexual maturity at 46 . 90 cm in length and 4 . 7 years of age and females attain sexual maturity at 42 . 08 cm and 4 . 1 years of age . a single peak in gonadosomatic index ( gsi ) , corresponding with a single spawning season , began in september and ended in february in the arabian sea ( al - rasady et al . 2012 ) .
this species is harvested as a food fish and is served fresh , as well as dried and salted ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) . it is collected using hook and line , gillnets , and traps ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) . this species is one of ~ 36 species that supports commercial carangid fisheries off india ( kasim 2003 ) . this species is also a major baitfish species in the west pacific ( blaber et al . 1993 ) .
this species is caught as bycatch in parts of its range ; however , there have not been any observed or suspected population declines to date as a result of commercial harvesting . other major threats are unknown .
there are no species - specific conservation efforts in place for this species ; however , its range overlaps with a number of marine protected areas ( iucn and unep 2014 ) .

this species is a coastal species that inhabits inshore coral and rocky reefs throughout its range ( grandcourt et al . 2004 ) . this species occurs in schools and is found to 50 m in depth ( al - abdessalaam 1995 ) . this species feeds on nekton , crustaceans and finfish ( blaber et al . 1990 , masuda and allen 1993 ) . grandcourt et al . ( 2004 ) estimated mean size at first maturity for female this species is 24 . 7 cm ( tl ) . this species spawns between may and september , with main spawning activity during june and september . gonado - somatic indices peak during may and august in females and july in males . growth rate for this species is fastest during the winter months ( november - april ) and slowest during the summer ( may - september ) ( grandcourt et al . 2004 ) . the maximum recorded fork length recorded for this species is 55 cm ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) .
this species is utilised throughout its range . it is a commercially important food fish and is sometimes taken as bycatch ( allen and robertson 1994 , carpenter et al . 1997 ) .
there are no known species - specific conservation measures for this species ; however , its range overlaps with a number of marine protected areas ( iucn and unep 2014 ) .

justification : this species is found throughout the western indian ocean to the west pacific . this species occurs to 25 m depth and inhabits seagrass beds , deep coastal reefs and shallow coral reefs . this species is incidentally taken by artisanal fisheries throughout its range and is sold fresh or dried salted ; however , there have been no observed or suspected population declines resulting from exploitation . there are no known major threats to this species . it is therefore listed as least concern .
this species occurs in coastal continental waters of the indian ocean ( randall 1995 ) ( including east africa , madagascar and réunion ) , the red sea and the persian gulf , east to tonga in the western pacific ( randall et al . 2003 ) , north to japan and taiwan ( chang 1985 ) and south to australia ( smith - vaniz 1986 ) and new caledonia ( wantiez 1993 ) . this species is also known from the seychelles ( smith and smith 1963 ) and the maldives ( randall and anderson 1993 ) and has been recorded from off southern kerala , india ( naomi et al . 2011 ) and has recently been identified from majuro island in the marshall islands ( r . myers pers . comm . 2016 ) . the depth range for this species is 10 to 25 m ( allen and erdmann 2012 ) .

this species is considered to be common in coastal waters throughout the western indian ocean ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) .
this species is commonly found over deeper coastal reefs ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) , seagrass beds ( satapoomin 2011 ) , and coral reefs ( letourneur et al . 2004 ) ; however , due to its rather sluggish nature , this species is rarely found close to the shore ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) . this species is generally solitary ( kuiter and tonozuka 2001 ) . the maximum recorded total length ( tl ) for this species is 41 cm ( allen and erdmann 2012 ) .
this species is incidentally taken by artisanal fisheries throughout its range ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) . this species is caught mostly on hook and line ( carpenter et al . 1997 ) , but is also taken by gillnets and traps ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) . it is marketed fresh as well as dried and salted ( smith - vaniz 1984 ) .
this species is caught on hook - and - line by recreational anglers and is sometimes taken coincidentally by gill nets and traps in artisanal fisheries ( smith - vaniz 1984 , carpenter et al . 1997 ) ; however , there have not been any observed or suspected population declines resulting from these uses . there are no other known major threats to this species .
