From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yellowfin Bream can also be found on the coast of karachi, Pakistan. Much of the wildlife here is undiscovered and undocumented. On the rocky cost at the south of Karachi near Defence Phase - 8, fisherman can be seen fishing for Yellowfin Bream, which are there in abundance. The local name for the fish is "Dhandya," pronounced DHUN - THEY - AH. The fish are genereally about 6 - 8 inches long but can grow to a maximum of 2 feet. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.81.213.175 (talk) 12:17, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Request edit

[edit]

The picture on this page is of the wrong fish. It depicts a tarwhine as opposed to a yellowfin (surf) bream. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.167.215.173 (talk) 05:58, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Removed. Looks like a labelling issue led to this. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 14:29, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Common Name of Fish/Article Name

[edit]

A quick internet search suggests 'Surf Bream' is a coloquial name used in the amateur fishing community while 'Yellowfin Bream' is used by various fisheries agencies, government departments and museums as a more accurate decriptor. Should the article name be changed? Stuart midgley (talk) 23:27, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch. I started this page at 'Yellowfin bream' and it got moved. I just saw this. Of course when I was a kids it was "silver bream"....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 23:36, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
