Abstract
Summary. Samples of the fish species Argentina silus (Ascanius) have been studied for utilization as a food fish and also for the production of fish meal. the flesh was found very acceptable by taste panels, but because of its unsaturated oil content, rancidity would occur during long‐term storage unless precautions were taken to reduce this spoilage.The lipid content and composition of this fish together with the amino acid composition has been measured. the results indicate that fish meal produced from it would be nutritious and have a relatively high oil content, if the fish was not processed as a fatty fish.
