The shark mackerel (Grammatorcynus bicarinatus) is a species of Spanish mackerel (tribe Scomberomorini) in the scombrid family (Scombridae).[2] Their maximum reported length is 112 cm (44 in), and the maximum reported weight is 13.5 kg (30 lb).[3]

This species is sometimes also called the largescaled tunny, large-scaled tunny or salmon mackerel.[2] Before 1983, this species was sometimes confused with Grammatorcynus bilineatus, the double-lined mackerel.[1]
