fario

From Latin fario (“salmon trout”), possibly from late Proto-Indo-European *sr̥Hyón-, akin to English sturgeon.

Noun

fario (plural fario)

1. (UK) The brown trout
   • 1918, J. Arthur Gibbs, A Cotswold Village‎^[1]:

     As you walk along the main street which runs parallel with the river, an angler is busy "swishing" his rod violently in the air to "dry" the fly, ere he essays to drop it over the nose of one of the speckled fario which abound; so be careful to step down off the path which runs alongside the stream, in case you should put the fish "down" and spoil the sport.

   • 1906, Louisiana Purchase Exposition Commission, Final Report of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition Commission‎^[2]:

     A collection of Scotch red deer and fallow deer heads testified to the magnificent hunting that is obtained among the virgin forests of New Zealand, and specimens of trout--rainbow, salmon, fario, and fontinalis--taken from the mountain-fed streams that intersect the country from one end to the other appealed to the fishing enthusiast.
