1992 - 1993 Swaby et al South Coast Britain Blue Runner (Caranx crysos) fish records

In September 1992 a blue runner (Caranx crysos) (37 cm) was caught off Portland Harbour, Dorset, by an angler. In August 1993, a second blue runner (29 cm), was hand-lined in St Ives Bay, Cornwall by Mr Astrinsky, of Penzance. These two fishes are the first records of the blue runner C. crysos from British waters, and represent a northerly extension to its range.
