Breeches are properly short clothes, reaching just below the knee; the use of the word for trousers is erroneous and vulgar. Trou sers is the old word for the garment common in Occidental nations to cover the legs of men; many, especially in England, still insist upon the word, and confine pantaloons to its historical sense.

(a) In Europe, under the names S. trutta and S. fario, numer European Trout ( Salmo trutta). ous forms have been alternately combined and then sepаrated into subspecies and varieties, or accorded full specific rank. Day considers that there are but two species of British Salmonidæ -the salmon, Salmo salar, and the trout, S. trutta. Others divide the latter into S. trutta and S. fario, and these again into others, as S. cambric us, the sewin; S. gal livens is, the Galway trout; S. stomachic us, the Gillaroo trout; S. levenensis, the Loch Leven trout; etc. (6) In America there are several black-spotted trouts, specifically distinct from the European S. trutta, but belonging to the same section of the genus Salmo, commonly called trout, with or without a qualifying term (like the species of Salve lin us: see def. 2). All these inhabit western portions of the continent. Such are S. gairdneri, with moderate-sized scales, 120 to 150 in a row, and 10 anal rays, of the Pacific slope waters; the rainbow-trout, S. irideus (see cut under rainbow - trout ), closely related to the foregoing, native of streams west of the Sierra Nevada, and now much diffused by pisciculture; the Rocky Mountain trout, S. purpuratus (see lake - trout, 1, and cut under Salmo ).
