  • The preferred term for the fish formally known as the squawfish.

    A "correct usage" note from the Microsoft Encarta College dictionary:

    Because the term "squaw" is now generally avoided, traditional names of plants and animals that contain it are also being shunned in favor of more scientific alternatives.
