The white mullet or silver mullet (''Mugil curema'') is a (sub)tropical marine fish of the Mugilidae family. It is commonly about 30 cm long. Note that silver mullet is also a common name used for fantail mullet (''Mugil gyrans''). ==Distribution and habitat== The White Mullet is an Atlantic and Pacific fish mainly found on American coasts. In the Western Atlantic it ranges from Argentina to Cape Cod and rarely even north to Nova Scotia. In the Eastern Atlantic it occurs from Namibia to Senegal, and in the Eastern Pacific from Chile to the Gulf of California.〔 The white mullet is found along sandy coasts and in littoral pools, and also occurs in brackish lagoons and estuaries on muddy substrates and sometimes even in rivers. Particularly juveniles do invade estuaries and coastal lagoons. Adults occur in schools.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「White mullet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
