burbot
The burbot (''Lota lota'') or bubbot〔http://www.ukdivers.net/life/fishcards.htm〕 is the only gadiform (cod-like) freshwater fish. Also known as mariah, freshwater ling, the lawyer, coney-fish, lingcod and (misleadingly) eelpout, the burbot is closely related to the marine common ling and the cusk. It is the only member of the genus ''Lota''.The Burbot is the only individual from the cod family that lives in freshwater. For some time of the year the burbot lives under ice. They require frigid temperatures to breed.
==Etymology==
The name burbot comes from the Latin word ''barba'', meaning beard, referring to its single chin whisker, or barbel.〔http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/volunteer/janfeb00/burbot_profile.html〕 The genus and species name "lota" comes from the old French〔http://www.cnrtl.fr/etymologie/lotte〕 ''lotte'' fish named also "barbot" in Old French. The Inuktitut–Iñupiaq word for burbot was also used to name the recently discovered extinct presumed transitional species ''Tiktaalik''.
