A species of long-finned tuna (Thunnus alalunga), also called albacore tuna, found in Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans.
From Latin ala (wing) + lunga (long), referring to the characteristically long pectoral fins. The Linnaean scientific name preserved this Latin descriptive etymology.
Alalunga tuna are the only tuna species with long white meat—that's why they're the only ones you can legally call 'white tuna' in the US, and they're worth way more!
