Notes on Different Meanings

• The reference to "luciobrama" from the Vietnamese-French dictionary points to a different genus of fish (likely , the long spiky-head carp). This is a distinct species not typically referred to as "cá măng" in common Vietnamese usage today. In modern Vietnamese, "cá măng" almost exclusively refers to the milkfish ().
