Tanımlama İpuçları

1. 1

   Black Spot

   The most reliable identification feature is the distinct, saddle-shaped black spot on the caudal peduncle, just before the tail fin. This spot is usually very clear and well-defined.

2. 2

   Body Shape and Color

   Its silvery, compressed, and oval body, combined with the black spot, makes it relatively easy to distinguish from other seabreams. The overall coloration is generally uniform silvery-grey.

3. 3

   Fin Count

   Counting the dorsal fin spines (11-12) and soft rays (12-14) can help confirm identification, especially when differentiating from very similar species.
