DONAYRE-SALAZAR, Susan et al. Unusual Carangidae species during the El Niño costero 2017 in Pisco coast, south of Peru. Rev. peru biol. [online]. 2022, vol.29, n.1, e21280.  Epub 15-Mar-2022. ISSN 1727-9933.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/rpb.v29i1.21280.

This work reports the unusual presence of species of the Carangidae family in Pisco province coast (13.5° S), department of Ica, which occurred during the El Niño costero 2017 event. Four species were observed: Caranx caballus, Caranx caninus, Oligoplites saurus y Selene brevoortii were captured with the “cortina agallera” fishing gear. During the El Niño costero 2017 in the study area, temperatures above 26 °C and moderately high salinities (> 35.1 ups) were recorded, conditions would have favored the displacement of these species, frequent in the north of Peru, towards higher latitudes.
