A large flatfish found in the North Pacific, also called a black flounder or Greenland halibut.
From 'black' (its dark coloring on the upper side) and 'back' (the back of the fish). A simple descriptive name used by fishermen.
Flatfish like blackback are masters of camouflage—they can change color to match their surroundings in seconds! They spend their entire lives lying on the ocean floor on one side, which is why both their eyes end up on the same side of their head.
