EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dated 1863, showcases the stunning beauty of the Orcynus germon, or Long-Finned Tunny, a remarkable fish species belonging to the Scombridae family and the Scombrinae subfamily. The Long-Finned Tunny, also known as the Blue, Silver, or Yellowfin Tuna, is a highly migratory and fast-swimming pelagic fish, found in the tropical and subtropical waters of the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans. The Long-Finned Tunny is easily recognizable by its long, slender body, deep blue back, silver sides, and distinctive yellow finlets and anal fin. Reaching lengths of up to 1.8 meters (6 feet) and weights of over 70 kilograms (150 pounds), this powerful fish is a formidable predator, feeding on a varied diet of squid, fish, and crustaceans. This photograph, taken in the 1860s, offers a glimpse into the natural history of this fascinating species during the Victorian era. The Long-Finned Tunny was a subject of great interest for naturalists and fishermen alike, who marveled at its speed, agility, and striking appearance. Today, the Long-Finned Tunny remains a popular target for sport fishermen and a valuable commodity for commercial fisheries, making it an essential component of marine ecosystems and a source of livelihood for many communities around the world. This image serves as a reminder of the rich natural heritage that surrounds us and the importance of preserving and protecting the world's marine biodiversity for future generations to enjoy.
