Atlantic menhaden
The Atlantic menhaden (''Brevoortia tyrannus'') is a silvery, highly compressed fish in the herring family, Clupeidae.
Atlantic menhaden are found in coastal and estuarine waters from Nova Scotia to northern Florida. They are commonly found in all salinities of the Chesapeake Bay and Mid-Atlantic water. They swim in large schools that stratify by size and age along the coast. Younger and smaller fish are found in the Chesapeake Bay and southern coastline while older, larger fish are found along the northern coastline.〔
==General biology==
Atlantic menhaden can reach a maximum size of approximately 15 inches. Distinguishing characteristics include a moderately compressed body, a black spot on their shoulder behind their gill openings with a silvery colored body.〔(NOAA Fish Facts: Atlantic Menhaden )〕
