Summary: | Seriola dorsalis (Gill, 1863). Yellowtail or Yellowtail Jack. To at least 1.5 m (5 ft) TL (Miller and Lea 1972). Northern British Columbia (54°35’N, 131°00’W) (Nagtegaal and Farlinger 1981) to central Mexico (Robertson and Allen 2015), including Gulf of California (Miller and Lea 1972), Islas Galápagos (Grove and Lavenberg 1997), and Isla Malpelo (Robertson and Allen 2002). Unverified reports from Gulf of Alaska off Kodiak Island and Cordova (Mecklenburg et al. 2002). Primarily epipelagic; depth: surface to at least 91 m (300 ft) (min.: Miller and Lea 1972; max.: M.L., unpubl. data). Nelson et al. (2004) changed the official common name from Yellowtail to Yellowtail Jack, but West Coast fishers and researchers may be reluctant to adopt the change. Previously referred to as the widely distributed Seriola lalandi Valenciennes, 1833. However, we follow Martinez-Takeshita et al. (2015) and limit the distribution of S. lalandi to the Southern Hemisphere, Seriola dorsalis from the eastern Pacific Ocean and Seriola aureovittata Temminck & Schlegel (1845) in the northwest Pacific (but see above under Seriola aureovittata).
