Croakers
Scientifically known as Micropogonias undulatus, the croaker is also known by the names: corcus, hardhead, king billy, and la corbina, depending on where it's caught. Obviously, the name croaker is derived from the predominate croaking sound that it produces by vibrating its inflated swim bladder, much like that of a person rubbing an air-filled rubber balloon. It is a small fish between 8 and 35 ounces. The species extends down most of South American Coast. Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina catch the major imported quantities. |
