A single yellowtail specimen (514.0 mm standard length), collected in the open ocean of the central North Pacific (31˚38.3'N, 163˚24.5'W), was identified as Seriola aureovittata Temminck and Schlegel, 1845, following morphological observations and genetic analysis. Commonly believed to be distributed in coastal areas off East Asia, the species may occupy a wide range of habitat in the western and central North Pacific (supported also by previous fisheries records). Seriola dorsalis (Gill, 1863), a very similar congener, is distributed in the eastern North Pacific, the two species being considered separated by the East Pacific Barrier.
