Body Spots

Look for the distinctive pattern of numerous small, bright yellow to brassy spots scattered over the body, especially above the lateral line. This is the most reliable distinguishing feature.

Opercular Spot

Lateral Line

Observe the strongly arched anterior portion of the lateral line, which then becomes straight posteriorly, armed with 20-30 scutes.

Pectoral Fin

The long, falcate pectoral fin is a characteristic of many Carangoides species, but its length relative to the anal fin origin can be a clue.
