Scomb, cause I need to bust the myth!
 
Didn't know Tats where included in the myth....

There are pics of plenty that are over a foot I thought?
 
I've ever read this genus is composed 4 species. Between Scom and others are identified by position of ventral fin for first point and after that 3 species ( H.armatus , H.tatauaia and H.wallacei) are identified by scales on anal fin or not?

What does a mature scomb look like? are there any pictures posted with a mature scomb?
I think some these pictures posted of fishermen holding giant pyara are scombs due to the silver color and absence of color in the tailfin.They all look pretty similar when large or mature..fearsome.
