Bigeye Crevalle, Bigeye Trevally, or Sixband Jack. To 120 cm (47.2 in) TL ( Sadovy and Cornish 2000). Indo-Pacific; western Pacific Ocean north to southern Japan (Senou in Nakabo 2002); San Diego Bay, southern California ( Lea and Walker 1995) to northern Peru ( Robertson and Allen 2015), including lower Gulf of California ( Robertson and Allen 2002) and Islas Galápagos ( Grove and Lavenberg 1997). Marine, brackish, and fresh waters ( Fricke et al. 2020); depth: 1–146 m (3–479 ft) (min.: González-Acosta et al. 1999; max.: Myers 1999). Morera et al. (20019) report on a capture at a depth of 1,345 m (4,412 ft), however this capture was made in a bottom trawl and the fish may have been captured in midwaters during deployment or retrieval. A hybrid of this species and Caranx melampygus Cuvier, 1833 was taken off Panama ( Angulo et al. 2020).
