BURBOT

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 809 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BUN-CAL
BURBOT , or EEL-POUT (Lola vulgaris), a
fish
  of the family Gadidae, which differs from the
ling
  in the dorsal and anal fins reaching the caudal, and in the small
size
  of all the teeth. It exceeds a length of 3 ft. and is a
freshwater
 
fish
 , although examples are exceptionally taken in British estuaries and in the Baltic; some specimens argil handsomely marbled with dark
brown
 , with
black
  blotches on the back and dorsal fins. It is very locally distributed in central and northern Europe, and an uncommon fish in
England
 . Its flesh is excellent. The American burbot (Lola maculosa) is coarser, and not favoured for the table.
