Indian mackerel — size comparison — facts and sources

The Indian mackerel lives in coastal Indo-Pacific waters. It has a silvery, streamlined body, green-blue back and dark spot at the pectoral-fin base. Rows of small finlets follow the second dorsal and anal fins.

It forms schools and feeds on plankton. It takes both phytoplankton and small drifting animals; larger individuals also use larger zooplankton. Concentrations of food influence school locations.
