An hypothesis concerning the migration and distribution of Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) / David Kulka.: Fs70-8/77-7E-PDF

"The Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus), is abundant in the coastal waters of the Canadian and American Atlantic from Chesapeake Bay to Newfoundland waters (Bigelow and Shroeder 1953 and Parsons 1970). It is also found in the northeast Atlantic from Spain to Norway. This species in the family Scombridae is of tropical origin and is the most northerly species of the genus Scomber. It is a pelagic fish designed for an efficient hydrodynamic performance and therefore is adapted well for its long distance migrations"--Introduction.
