Salmon is a pale pink-red color, named after the color of salmon flesh. Actual salmon color varies from almost white to deep red, depending on their levels of the carotenoid astaxanthin due to a rich diet in krill and shrimp. The widely-accepted color "salmon" is on the lighter rather than the darker side of this range.

It became an official Crayola color in 1949.
