Silver trevally, Pseudocaranx georgianus, (also known as skippy, skipjack trevally and silver bream) is a jack of the family Carangidae found around the coast of Australia and New Zealand.

Description The fish can grow to a length of 1.2 m (3 ft 11 in) and weigh up to 18 kg (40 lb). More typically, it has a length of 35 to 60 cm (14 to 24 in) and a weight of 0.4 to 2.5 kg (0.88 to 5.51 lb). The species can live as long as 25 years. They have compressed and elongated bodies, the upper portion is a bluish-silver colour, the belly is silver, and the sides are a yellow-silver shade. A small black blotch is found on the bony flap covering the gills. The fish have two dorsal fins, two small, detached spines in front of the rear fin, and a deeply forked tail fin. Between two and four years of age, the silver trevally becomes sexually mature and is able to reproduce. Spawning happens in estuaries and deeper waters between spring and autumn over an extended period; the females can produce between 50,000 and 200.000 eggs over the course of a season.

Taxonomy The species was first formally described by the biologist Georges Cuvier in 1833 as part of the work Histoire Naturelle des Poissons as described from the type specimen caught at King George Sound near Albany in Western Australia.
