Classification / Names Common names | Synonyms | Catalog of Fishes( genus , species ) | ITIS | CoL | WoRMS | Cloffa

Teleostei (teleosts) > Clupeiformes (Herrings) > Chirocentridae (Wolf herring)
Etymology: Chirocentrus: Greek, cheir = hand + Greek, kentron = sting (Ref. 45335 ) .
More on author: Swainson .

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range Ecology

Marine; pelagic-neritic; depth range 0 - 150 m (Ref. 30573 ). Tropical; 30°N - 30°S, 30°E - 162°E

Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri

Indo-West Pacific: tropical, widespread. Questionably occurring in the Mascarenes (Ref. 33390 ). Distribution is probably similar to that of Chirocentrus dorab but not always distinguished from that species (Ref. 188 ).

Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 100.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 188 ); max. published weight: 410.00 g (Ref. 4883 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Diagnosis: The slightly longer pectoral fin, 13-18% of standard length, and the absence of black markings on the dorsal fin tip are the only satisfactory characters separating this species from Chirocentrus dorab ; also there is no black on the anterior part of the anal fin (Ref. 188 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Pelagic in coastal waters, from the shore to a depth of about 150 m (Ref. 30573 ). It feeds on small fish and crustaceans (Ref. 5213 , 30573 ). Marketed fresh or frozen.

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 24.3 - 29.1, mean 28 °C (based on 2510 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 1.0000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00575 (0.00294 - 0.01127), b=3.00 (2.82 - 3.18), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & (Sub)family-body (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.2   ±0.74 se; based on food items. Generation time: 4.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1 growth studies. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (K=0.24). Prior r = 0.58, 95% CL = 0.38 - 0.87, Based on 2 stock assessments. Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Moderate to high vulnerability (53 of 100). Climate Vulnerability (Ref. 125649 ):  High vulnerability (64 of 100). Price category (Ref. 80766 ):   Medium . Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 71.8 [44.0, 193.6] mg/100g; Iron = 1.12 [0.65, 1.96] mg/100g; Protein = 19.6 [17.0, 21.8] %; Omega3 = 0.226 [0.112, 0.461] g/100g; Selenium = 72.6 [35.6, 167.3] μg/100g; VitaminA = 18.4 [6.1, 50.9] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.79 [0.54, 1.13] mg/100g (wet weight);
