Mediterranean Amberjack

Seriola carpenteri is a species of ray-finned fish commonly known as the Guinean amberjack (French: Sériole guinéenne, Spanish: Medregal de Guinea), which feeds on squids and fishes. It attains a size of at least 48 cm (18.9 in) fork length, and probably attains a much larger size. Adults are pelagic or epibenthic. Generally confined to areas where surface temperatures exceed 25 °C, the species is found in coastal waters over continental shelf from the surface to at least 200 m (656.2 ft) deep.

It is found in the eastern Atlantic from the Bay of Biscay to Angola, including Cape Verde. Its distribution may be influenced by seasonal movements of the 18–27 °C water mass along the African coast. Since 2000 it has been recorded on few occasions in the Sicily Channel, central Mediterranean Sea.
