Salminus brasiliensis, also known as the golden dorado, dorado, river tiger, dourado, or jaw characin, is a large, predatory characiform freshwater fish found in central and east-central South America. Despite having Salminus in its name, the dorado is not related to any species of salmon, nor to the saltwater fish also called "dorado". It is very popular among recreational anglers and supports large commercial fisheries.
