Conservation Status
As of 1994 there were several threatened species in Scombridae. Scomberomorus concolor (Monterrey Spanish mackerel) was listed as endangered, and Thunnus maccoyyii (southern bluefin tuna) as critically endangered; in other words both face severe threat of extinction. Thunnus obesus (bigeye tuna) was listed as vulnerable, and two others, Thunnus alalunga (albacore tuna) and Thunnus orientalis (northern bluefin tuna) may be threatened as well.
