Mugil hospes is a marine fish from the mullet family. It lives in coastal waters and estuaries of the eastern Pacific Ocean and has an elongated silvery body.
Mugil hospes differs from closely related mullet species in the details of scale structure and head shape. These fish are important for nature because they process detritus and serve as food for predatory fish and birds.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
