Megalopidae (as animal) A089R Natural sources ** Non-specific term *

Live animal of the taxonomic family Megalopidae. The organisms are commonly known as Tarpon (diadromous). The part considered is by default the whole living organism.

Non-specific term (Level of detail)

A mid-level grouping — more specific than a broad group but broader than a standard term (e.g. 'Cods, hakes, haddocks'). Used only as a fallback when nothing more specific applies. ↩

Natural sources (Type of Term)

The living organism a food ultimately comes from — a plant, animal or similar. It describes origin (where a food starts in the food chain) rather than being a food you would eat. ↩

Implicit facet descriptors *

Facet descriptor

Implicit facet descriptors are characteristics a food already implies, so they are left out of its FoodEx2 code. For example, "smoked salmon" (A02KF) implies the facet descriptor "smoking" (F28.A07JV); because the term itself already conveys it, it is not added to the code. ↩

Narrower terms

These are child terms of the current term, "Megalopidae (as animal)".
