Hake Capensis or Cape Hake
Capensis hake (Merluccius capensis), also known as Cape hake, is a whitefish species that inhabits the cold waters of the Southeast Atlantic and Southwest Indian Ocean, specifically in the areas around Namibia, South Africa and Angola. Its scientific name, "capensis", refers to the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, which is one of its major areas of distribution.
The name Cape hake also includes the species Merluccius paradoxus, which is very similar to capensis and is usually caught together.
