Description
Atlantic spanish mackerel (Scomberomorus maculatus) are speedy swimmers that gather in shallow waters in the western Atlantic. Their numbers fell in the past due to overfishing, but careful management has allowed atlantic spanish mackerel populations to rise again. This species has also gained popularity with Japanese sushi chefs, despite the risk its flesh carries for ciguatera poisoning.
