Trachinotinae is a subfamily of the family Carangidae, the jacks and pompanos.
Genera
Two genera are placed in the Trachinotinae:
- Lichia Cuvier, 1816
- Trachinotus Lacepède, 1801
The earliest known member of this subfamily is Lichia veronensis from the Early Eocene of Monte Bolca, Italy. The fossil genus Paratrachinotus was sometimes placed in this subfamily, but more recent studies suggest that it belongs in its own clade.
