Barcheek trevally
The barcheek trevally, ''Carangoides plagiotaenia'' (also known as the barcheek kingfish, shortridge trevally and oblique-banded trevally), is a species of moderately large marine fish of the jack family Carangidae. The barcheek trevally is distributed throughout the tropical waters of the Indo-west Pacific region, ranging from South Africa in the west to Japan, Australia and a number of small central Pacific islands in the east. The species inhabits inshore and offshore waters, found along the slopes of lagoons and out to deeper reefs on the continental shelf, where it preys on small fish and benthic crustaceans. It is a moderately large fish, growing to a maximum recorded length of 50 cm, and can be distinguished from similar species by its somewhat protruding lower jaw and the dark banding on its operculum. It is of minor importance to fisheries throughout its range, taken by trawling, hook and line methods and various inshore fish netting methods.
==Taxonomy and naming==
The barcheek trevally is classified within the genus ''Carangoides'', a group of fish commonly called jacks and trevallies. ''Carangoides'' falls into the jack and horse mackerel family Carangidae, itself part the order Perciformes, in the suborder Percoidei.
The species was first scientifically described by the Dutch ichthyologist Pieter Bleeker in 1857 based on a specimen taken from Ambon Island in Indonesia, which was designated to be the holotype.〔 〕 Bleeker named this new species ''Carangoides plagiotaenia'', placing the species in what is still considered to be the correct genus, while later revisions transferred it to the genus ''Caranx'' which was later considered to be an invalid move. The species was renamed three times after its initial correct naming, with all these subsequent names considered to be invalid junior synonyms under ICZN nomenclature rules. The specific epithet ''plagiotaenia'' means 'oblique band' in Greek,〔 and this reflects in one of the species common names, which is also applied to the coachwhip trevally. The names 'barcheek trevally' and 'shortridge trevally' refer to distinctive aspects of the species appearance.
