The silver pomfret or white pomfret, is a species of butterfish that lives in the Indo-West Pacific, spanning the coastal waters of the Middle East, Eastern Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Asia. The species has been reported only twice, one hundred years apart, from the central Mediterranean Sea. Silver pomfrets are usually silver/white in colour, with few small scales. They can grow up to a range of 4-6 kg (8-13 lb). However, due to overfishing, specimens weighing less than 1 kg (2 lb) are more commonly seen. Size (60 - 150) GR
