Wikipedia definition
2. Oncorhynchus kawamuraeOncorhynchus kawamurae, the black kokanee, or kunimasu in Japanese, is a Japanese taxon of salmon which was thought had gone extinct in 1940, but was discovered to still have a living population in 2010. Oncorhynchus kawamurae is related to the sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka, and has been earlier treated as its subspecies O. nerka kawamurae. The fish was thought to have gone extinct in 1940 when a hydroelectric project made Lake Tazawa, its native lake, more acidic.
