(Oncorhynchus keta).
Humpbacked salmon, a Pacific-coast salmon ({Oncorhynchus
gorbuscha}).

Sebago), long confined in certain lakes in consequence of
obstructions that prevented it from returning to the sea.
This last is called also dwarf salmon.
[1913 Webster]
Note: Among fishes of other families which are locally and
erroneously called salmon are: the pike perch, called
jack salmon; the spotted, or southern, squeteague;
the cabrilla, called kelp salmon; young pollock,
called sea salmon; and the California yellowtail.
