Pollachius virens is a species of marine fish in the genus Pollachius. Together with P. pollachius, it is generally referred to in the United States as pollock. It is commonly known in Britain as the coalfish, coley, or saithe (/seɪð/ or /seɪθ/),[1][2] and the young fish may also be called podleys in Scotland and northern England.[3]
