pilchards
Small ocean fish
Pilchards are small, oily fish related to herrings, found in temperate waters worldwide.
The name typically refers to adult sardines, though usage varies by region—what Europeans call pilchards, Americans usually call sardines.
They're commonly canned, salted, or used as bait.
Cornish pilchards were once a staple of the British fishing industry.
