A este grupo de peces se les conoce comúnmente como lijas. Existen varias especies; algunas alcanzan mayor tamaño y son objeto de pesca para consumo humano. Esta especie en particular es muy común a lo largo de toda la costa norte y puede encontrarse a distintas profundidades. Incluso cerca de la orilla son frecuentes.
