Trout

　　　　Product Name: Trout

　　Place of Origin: Wenzhou

　　Product Features: Belonging to the order Salmoniformes and family Salmonidae, trout are highly valuable both as game fish and food fish

　　Product Introduction: They typically inhabit freshwater, with several species migrating to the sea during the breeding season. Trout share the same order and family with salmon and have a close genetic relationship. Nowadays, artificial breeding and farming of trout are emphasized in many regions. Trout mainly belong to two genera: Oncorhynchus and Salvelinus. The Oncorhynchus genus includes salmon and several types of trout, while the Salvelinus genus includes several trout that can also be referred to as char. The main differences between these two genera of trout lie in their body color, the shape of the vomer bone above the mouth, and the structure of their teeth. Salvelinus trout have darker skin with red or cream-colored spots. Their vomer bones are boat-shaped rather than straight. Oncorhynchus trout have lighter skin with red or black spots and sparser teeth. Due to irregular physiological structures, body color variations, as well as factors such as artificial breeding, hybridization, and introduction of foreign species, trout are among the most difficult fish to classify. Several species originally classified under the genus Salmo are now generally considered to belong to the Oncorhynchus genus. The brown trout is currently the only species still classified under the genus Salmo and is also an endangered variety of trout.

　　Product History: Trout, belonging to the order Salmoniformes and family Salmonidae, are a highly valuable type of game and food fish, with only about 10 species existing worldwide.
