Salema porgy (Lat. Sarpa salpa). Coastal species, lives above rocky bottom usually with vegetation and in meadows of seagrass. Leaves in schools to depth of 15 m. It is recognized at first side because it shows 10-12 conspicuous yellow longitudinal stripes. Grows till 50 cm (3 kg), common 12-30 cm. Juvenile specimen feeds with crabs. Adults feeds with algae. The flesh is of poor quality, with the taste often muddy and full of spines, but especially, in certain periods of the year, when some toxic seaweed proliferate, it is not edible, because causing digestive disorders and hallucinations. Catches by setnets, fish-traps and handlines. Because of its properties—it’s known in Arabic as “the fish that makes dreams”, —thanks to hallucinations such as LSD, for those who eat it – this sea bream was supposedly consumed as a recreational drug in the Roman Empire and used among Polynesians for ceremonial purposes.
