Hmmmm. This was more complicated than I thought. It seems that the word English \"butterfish\" is used for one specie (my answer) and a totally unrelated group of fishes (Jerker\'s answer). See http://hem.passagen.se/kent.andersson/Smorfisk.htm ! More context is needed to figure out which answer is the right one.
