Salmar
'''Salmar''' is a character in  [[J. R. R. Tolkien]]'s fictional universe, [[Middle-earth]]. He made the Ulumúri for his lord [[Ulmo]], the great [[conch]]es which produce the music of the [[sea]].

In the index of [[The Silmarillion]] Salmar is described as a [[Maiar|Maia]], but it is unknown whether that entry was written by J.R.R. Tolkien or his son [[Christopher Tolkien]]. While there is no other text describing Salmar as one of the [[Maiar]] his status as a spirit who accompanied Ulmo but was not listed amongst the [[Valar]] would make that the logical conclusion.

----

In earlier conceptions of the legendarium (see: ''[[The History of Middle-earth]]'') Salmar is often called by the title '''Noldorin''', and sometimes '''Lirillo''', and was envisioned as a [[Valar|Vala]] in the service of [[Auleë]].
