Abstract

Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) has identified a new species of mackerel in Kerala waters. Black-spotted new fish, which is round in shape, was named as Indian chub mackerel, Scomber indicus by CMFRI scientist team led by E M Abdussamad. The study carried out in this regard showed that the new species was distinctly different from other members of the mackerel family both taxonomically and genetically. The meat texture of the fish is soft and tastes similar to Indian mackerel.
