Distribution Countries | FAO areas | Ecosystems | Occurrences | Point map | Introductions | Faunafri

Europe: streams of eastern Adriatic slope from Zrmanja to Mornos drainages (Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, Macedonia, Greece). This species probably represents an artificial assemblage of several species. Salmo occurring from Alfios (Peloponnese) possibly refer to this species. Status of threat: near threatened.

Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 30.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 59043)

Short description Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics

Distinguished from all its congeners in Balkan Peninsula by the combination of the following characters: preanal length 73-80% SL; predorsal length 44-50% SL; 18-21 total gill rakers; interorbital distance 24-31% HL. This species is probably an artificial assemblage of several species. Several populations differ morphologically (Ref. 59043).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

Inhabits stretches with swift, clear, cold water, rapids and small waterfalls. Size reaches up to at least 30 cm SL (Ref. 59043).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01047 (0.00480 - 0.02286), b=3.03 (2.86 - 3.20), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.5 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  Medium, minimum population doubling time 1.4 - 4.4 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low to moderate vulnerability (27 of 100).
