Pacific saury is a marine fish with a long and very thin body. It lives in the northern part of the Pacific Ocean and serves as food for many marine animals.
The saury differs from other fish by its very slender body and a series of small finlets behind the dorsal and anal fins. It is important for nature as part of the ocean's food chain and as a target of fishing.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
