Chilean Jack Mackerel
Trachurus murphyi
The Chilean jack mackerel (Trachurus murphyi) sometimes called the Inca scad, is a species of jack mackerel in the genus Trachurus of the family Carangidae. Since the 1970s, it has become one of the world's more important commercial fish species. High volumes have been harvested, but the fishery may now be in danger of collapsing.
