lotte = burbot, Lola lola

Note(s) :
Nom d\'une espèce halieutique à potentiel commercial au Québec.
En France, on appelle souvent lotte la baudroie.
Le terme loche n\'a pas été retenu.
Parmi les sous-entrées des avis traitant des produits de la pêche, il faut bien distinguer les termes non retenus des termes à éviter. Les termes non retenus sont d\'abord des termes en usage ou officialisés en France, mais qu\'on n\'emploie pas au Québec parce que les réalités sont différentes, ou pour des raisons culturelles ou économiques. ((...)) Les termes non retenus désignent ensuite des synonymes non normalisés, puis enfin, dans un tout autre ordre d\'idées, des termes à éviter (anglicismes, expressions impropres, noms étrangers, etc.).

  -> the head is so huge and ugly that usually just the tails are sold. The flesh is white and there are no bones, just a cartiligineous central section.
agree  Elisabeth Toda-v.Galen

  -> sorry that should be cartilaginous - Mark
