Yes — chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) is marketed interchangeably as keta salmon, dog salmon, or silverbrite salmon depending on the market and processing stage. For HTS classification, all three names refer to the same species under 0302130022. FDA seafood labeling rules permit the use of accepted market names, and 'keta salmon' is an FDA-recognized acceptable market name for this species.
The exclusion of 'livers and roes' in the line description refers to separately presented roe, not to roe naturally contained within a whole or dressed fish. A whole female chum salmon imported with roe in situ is still classified under 0302130022. If roe is separately packed and shipped as a distinct product, it would be classified under a different heading covering fish roe.
