decapterus การใช้
- The yellowtail scad was first Jordan and Seale produced one such name in the form of " Decapterus lundini ".
- In most areas, the mainstay of its diet probably consists of pelagic reef habitat ( mainly, Caesio, Cirrhilabrus, Pterocaesio, carangids such as rainbow runners and Decapterus, mackerel scad, and scombrids ).
- Jordan later re-examined this taxon and decided it warranted its own, separate genus and thus created " Atule ", making " Decapterus lundini " the type species of the genus.
- A 1987 analysis of genetic divergence amongst the scads and horse mackerels using isozyme electrophoresis indicated the species was most closely related to " Selar ", forming a monophyletic clade with " Trachurus ", but being more distant from " Decapterus ".
- Souvenirs from Niijima include the island specialty " kusaya "-a dried fish, usually mackerel scad ( " Decapterus macarellus " ), that has been soaked in a special brine . " Kusaya ", which means " smells bad " in Japanese, has an odor that is indeed'quite'distinct.
- Two studies in 2002 and 2007 of mitochondrial cytochrome b sequences generally agreed that " Selaroides " was most closely related to " Selar " ( depending on analysis type ), however both indicated a closer relationship to the deeper bodied genera such as " Caranx " and " Hemicaranx " than to the scads of " Trachurus " and " Decapterus ".
