A long time practice. Less desirable species are often given a more
appetizing name, but it seems unusual to use the name that
specifically applies to another species of fish.

Dogfish sharks are often sold as "rock salmon" or "flake", (commonly
used for fish and chips in Britain). Obviously a dogfish shark is not
any member of the salmon family.

Sablefish are often marketed as "black cod," (but a sablefish is not a
member of the cod family).
