dc.description.abstractThe torpedo scad, Megalaspis cordyla (Linnaeus, 1758) is a moderately large marine fish belonging to family Carangidae. The largest recorded individual was 80 cm long (TL) (Smith-Vaniz, 1984). It is a high level carnivore with a trophic level of 4.40 and feeds on a variety of fish, cephalopods and crustaceans (Kasim, 2003; Rajanna et al., 2006; Vivekanandan et al., 2009). The torpedo scad is distributed throughout the tropical and subtropical waters of the Indian and west Pacific Oceans (Froese & Pauly, 2011). Boopendranath & Pravin (2005) have reviewed trawl selectivity and presented selectivity parameters reported for some fishes caught in Indian waters.en_US
