Genera

Trachinotinae is a subfamily of the family Carangidae, the jacks and pompanos.

Genera

Two genera are placed in the Trachinotinae: [2]

The earliest known member of this subfamily is Lichia veronensis from the Early Eocene of Monte Bolca, Italy. [5] The fossil genus Paratrachinotus was sometimes placed in this subfamily, but more recent studies suggest that it belongs in its own clade. [6]
