Wikipedia

  1. Mahi-mahi

    The mahi-mahi () or common dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) is a surface-dwelling ray-finned fish found in off-shore temperate, tropical, and subtropical waters worldwide. Also widely called dorado (not to be confused with Salminus brasiliensis, a fresh water fish) and dolphin, it is one of two members of the family Coryphaenidae, the other being the pompano dolphinfish. These fish are most commonly found in the waters around the Gulf of Mexico, Costa Rica, Hawaii and the Indian Ocean.

Wikidata

  1. Mahi-mahi

    The mahi-mahi or common dolphinfish is a surface-dwelling ray-finned fish found in off-shore temperate, tropical and subtropical waters worldwide. Also known widely as dorado, it is one of only two members of the Coryphaenidae family, the other being the pompano dolphinfish. Being referred to as a "dolphin" causes it to be confused with the more widely known marine mammals called dolphins. The name mahi-mahi means very strong in Hawaiian. In other languages the fish is known as dorade coryphène, lampuga, lampuka, lampuki, rakingo, calitos, or maverikos. Purely coincidentally, but confusingly, the word mahi means fish in Persian.
