   American Indian name.] (Zool.)
   An American sciaenoid fish ({Cynoscion regalis}), abundant on
   the Atlantic coast of the United States, and much valued as a
   food fish. It is of a bright silvery color, with iridescent
   reflections. Called also {weakfish}, {squitee}, {chickwit},

   called also {spotted weakfish} and {squit}, and, locally,
   {sea trout}, and {sea salmon}. See also under {squitee}.
