Scomberomorus is a genus of ray-finned bony fish in the mackerel family, Scombridae. More specifically, it is a member of the tribe Scomberomorini, commonly known as the Spanish mackerels.

Species

Scomberomorus includes 19 species:[2][3]

The following fossil species are also known:[5]

  • †Scomberomorus avitus Bannikov, 1985 - earliest Eocene (Ypresian) of Turkmenistan[6]
  • †Scomberomorus bleekeri (Storms, 1897) - middle Eocene of Belgium[7], early to middle Eocene of the eastern United States (Alabama, Virginia, New Jersey)[8][9]
  • †Scomberomorus dumonti (van Beneden, 1871) - Early Oligocene of Belgium[7] & France[10]
  • †Scomberomorus lingulatus (von Meyer, 1847) - Early Oligocene of France & Germany[10][11]
  • †Scomberomorus saevus Bannikov, 1982 - late Eocene (Priabonian) of Kazakhstan
  • †Scomberomorus stormsi (Leriche, 1905) - middle Eocene of Belgium[12], early to middle Eocene of the eastern United States (Alabama, Virginia, New Jersey)[8][9]

The fossil species S. bartonensis (Woodward, 1901) and S. excelsus (Woodward, 1901) from the early Eocene-aged London Clay are known from non-diagnostic material and thus their status as distinct species is uncertain, although they are at least considered a representative of the genus as Scomberomorus "sp. 1".[5][13] Another undescribed fossil Scomberomorus known from indeterminate remains is S. "sp. 2" from the Early Miocene of Malta.[5]

As food

Scomberomorus are consumed in Taiwan and Chaoshan as Majiao Yu (simplified Chinese: 马鲛鱼; traditional Chinese: 馬鮫魚) or Tutuo Yu (Chinese: 土魠魚), often prepared pan-fried or deep-fried and then served with soup.[14][15] In Jiaodong Peninsula, they are known as Ba Yu (Chinese: 鲅鱼) and used as fillings in dumplings.[16] In Japan, they are known as Sawara (サワラ) and often prepared grilled or as Sashimi.[17]
