Ecology Summary - Pseudocaranx dentex

Språk:

Main Ref.	Honebrink, R., 1990
Anmärkningar	Prefers banks and deep slopes (Ref. 122680). Is an opportunistic bottom feeder preying on fish, mollusks and crustaceans. Reported to exhibit suspension feeding (ram filtering) like other carangid species (Ref. 30206). In New Zealand, studies indicate that adult fish may move between demersal and pelagic habitats on a seasonal basis (Ref. 5961). At 2-3 months of age, when about 4 cm long, juvenile fish move into shallow inshore waters (Ref. 27733).
