1. What is the real name of the Chilean sea bass?

2. Complete the names of these oysters: Cape May _____, Naked _____, Mermaid ____, Emerald _____.

3. Translate the following Japanese seafood names into English (be specific): maguro, anago, tako, hotate.

1. Chilean sea bass is its popular name, but the fish's far less sexy official moniker is the Patagonian toothfish. 2. Cape May Salt, Naked Cowboy, Mermaid Strait, Emerald Cove. 3. Maguro = tuna. Anago = salt-water eel. Tako = octopus. Hotate = scallop.
