lautnusantara.com Salmon is the common name for several species of commercially important euryhaline ray-finned fish of the genera Salmo and Oncorhynchus in the family Salmonidae. Salmon are native to tributaries of the North Atlantic (Salmo) and North Pacific (Oncorhynchus) basins. Salmon are generally anadromous: they hatch on shallow gravel beds in freshwater headwaters and spend their juvenile years in freshwater rivers, lakes, and wetlands, migrate to the sea as adults and live as saltwater fish, then return to their freshwater birthplace to reproduce.
