WHAT DOES LOUVAR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Louvar

The louvar or luvar, Luvarus imperialis, is a species of perciform fish, the only extant species in the genus Luvarus and family Luvaridae. It is closely related to the surgeonfish. The juvenile form has a pair of spines near the base of the tail, like the surgeonfish, though they are lost in the adult. It is a large, ellipsoidal fish, growing to 200 cm long, though most do not exceed 152 cm. The greatest weight recorded for this species is 150 kg. It is pink in color and possesses a characteristic bulging forehead. It is found in surface waters of temperate and tropical oceans throughout the world were it can be found at depths of from near the surface to 200 m. It feeds on jellyfish, ctenophores, and other soft-bodied planktonic animals. It is hardly ever found in fish markets in the United States, only as bycatch, but is prized as an eating fish.
