Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Adults inhabit coastal waters, frequently near reefs and offshore islands (Ref. 30573, 48635). Occasionally found in estuaries. Usually in small groups (Ref. 9710, 48635). Feed on fishes, cephalopods, small invertebrates and, other pelagic prey (Ref. 5213, 90102).
