A species of the genus Salvelinus (illustration) of the family Salmonidae (Salmoniformes). A typical freshwater fish that lives in the uppermost reaches of the river, it is more common in deeper rivers than the yamame (illustration), and is popular among anglers as a good target for mountain stream fishing. It is called Kirikuchi in Wakayama, Gogi in the Chugoku Mountains, and Imouo in Fukui, and these are thought to be different lineages of the same species that are distributed independently. It grows to about 30 cm in length, with oval parr marks on its sides, small light gray circular spots, and even smaller vermilion spots mixed in below the lateral line.
