Salmó
De Viquipèdia
Salmó és el nom comú per diverses espècies de peixos de la família salmònid (Salmonidae).
Tots els salmons són peixos migratoris que neixen en aigües dolces, migren als oceans i tornen a l'aigua dolça a reproduir-se.
Hi ha salmons a l'oceà Atlàntic, al Pacífic i en alguns grans llacs continentals
En general els salmons pertanyen als gèneres Salmo (Atlàntic), Oncorhynchus (Pacífic) i Coregonus (llacs centreeuropeus).
L'espècie de salmó europeu (Salmo salar) fa uns 15 kg de pes.
La truita de riu també pertany al gènere Salmo però se'n diferencia per no tenir la carn d'un color tan vermell, tot i que la truita asalmonada és prou vermellosa.
