Description

Mullets have worldwide distribution and inhabit tropical and temperate seas; a few spend their lives in freshwater (Nelsonv, 2006). These ray-finned fish belong to the Mugilidae family (wikipedia, n.d.) which includes 17 genera and 72 species in the world (Harrison and Senou, 1999; Nelson, 2006). Eight species of Mugilidae inhabit the Mediterranean Sea, and originally classified as part of the single genus Mugil, under different names (M. cephalus, M. ramada, M. labrosus, M. labeo, M. aurata, M. abu, M. saliens, M. carinata) (in Turan C. et al., 2009).

Adults are found in coastal waters, often entering estuaries and rivers, sometimes far-up-river, lagoons and hypersaline environments. They are usually in schools over sand or mud bottom, between 0 and 10 m, occurring equally in tropical, subtropical and temperate waters. They are mainly diurnal, feeding on detritus, micro-algae and benthic organisms. Juveniles feed on zooplankton. Reproduction takes place at sea, at various times of the year depending on the location. Adults form schools and migrate offshore to spawn and developing larvae migrate back inshore. There is absence of an obligatory freshwater phase in the life cycle (fishbase, n.d.).
