Because whitefish are cmnmercially important, and because their natural reproduction in eutrophic lakes is ineffective, the life history, management and conservation of whitefish are investigated, taking the example of eutrophic Lake Hallwil in the Swiss Midland. The structure of today's fish assemblages in Swiss lakes is the result, first of all, of colonization after the last Ice Age some 15,000 years ago. After the retreat of the glaciers, fish immigrated fron1 the previously ice-free regions into the newly- formed lakes. Lake Hallwil is such a post-glacial lake. Today, it is inhabited by twenty fish species. In 196L a rapid decrease in oxygen concentration due to cul- tural eutrophication led to a devastating fish kill. In the following years, most of the fish populations successfully recovered on their own (chapter 2). However, in cu trophic lakes. sahnonid fish like whitefish are greatly endangered due to unsuc- cessful natural propagation and the threat of fish kills. In Lake Hallwil, the so called Lake Hallwil "Ballen" (Coregonus suidteri, Fatio), a :fast-growing autoch- thonous coregonid, was commercially important already during the Middle Ages. In 1898, the first algal bloom heralded the beginning of eutrophication. Stocking whitefish larvae to sustain the decreasing whitefish population was conducted already at the beginning of the 20th Century. Nevertheless, whitefish yield contin- ued to decrease due to the negative effects of progressing eutrophication. Follow- ing the fish kill of 1961, Lake Hallwil whitefish probably disappeared from the lake. Thanks to stocking Lake Sen1pach "Ballen", a conspecific whitefish form in a near-by lake, a whitefish population was successfully restored in Lake HallwiL Since 1970, an increasing munber of whitefish larvae have been pre-fed for at least six weeks in hatcheries prior to stocking in the lake. These pre-fed larvae are expected to survive ten times better in the lake than newly hatched larvae. Larvae are usually reared on live zooplankton or on dry diets. In order to further improve the rearing of whitefish larvae, smne feeding experhnents were carried out (chap- ters 3 and 4 ). Thereby it was found that live zooplankton is still the best diet to rear xi whitefish larvae. However, low zooplankton density in the lake in spring often leads to difficulties in supplying sufficient numbers of zooplankton in the hatch- eries. Nauplii of Artemia salina, various dry diets (chapter 3) or frozen zooplank- ton (chapter 4) may serve as alternative food. The results of the experiments showed that larvae reared on dry diet need an adaptation phase to switch from dry food to live zooplankton (chapter 3). As an important detail when setting up rear- ing tanks, the water inflow should be placed below the water surface of the tank in order to increase floating time and thus availability of the dry diet (chapter 4 ). Thanks to stocking pre-fed larvae, whitefish has been the dmninant fish in Lake Hallwil since 1977. Nevertheless, annual yield fluctuates strongly. This is a result of variation in year class strength caused by a number of mortality factors acting primarily during the early life stage of whitefish. Among the inortality factors investigated, intraspecific food cmnpetition due to high stock size and cannibal- ism were found to be unimportant. Larvae and adults showed different food pref- erences, leading to niche segregation during the most critical time in spring (chap- ter 5). However, strong evidence for early life mortality due to eutrophication- related processes was found using computer modelling: Sunny weather in May, together with high nutrient concentration, leads to strongly increased algal bimn- ass and photosynthesis. This may result in extreme oxygen supersaturation which causes lethal gas bubble syndrome in the whitefish larvae (chapter 6). The large whitefish stock in Lake Hallwil is certainly of great con11nercial interest. It also has to be seen as the positive result of fish species conservation. Growth retarda- tion, however, occurred in parallel with increasing whitefish density (chapter 7). Trophic state in tenns of total phosphorus concentration of Lake Hallwil decreased since 1977. External and internal restoration measures (chapter 1), in particular sewage diversion and artificial oxygenation since 1986, have had a pos- itive effect on the lake ecosystem. Hypolinmetic oxygenation has enlarged the living space of fish and benthic organisms (chapters 5 and 8). Within the context of these water protection ineasures, this thesis provides new knowledge on the biology and ecology of Lake Hallwil whitefish in a eutrophic lake undergoing res- toration. The results presented herein may set the basis for better conservation and rnanagen1ent through improved rearing, stocking and protecting this valuable fish (chapter 8). The new findings may also help to assess, on a more general basis, the Xll usefulness of external and internal lake restoration measures for conservation and management of lake whitefish. Xlll ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich im wesentlichen nut den Then1enbereich der Fischfauna und der Populationsdynamik von Coregonen in einc1n cutrophen See. Weil Felchen fischereiwirtschaftlich von Bedeutung sind und weil die natiirliche Fortpflanzung dieser Fische in eutrophen Seen nicht mehT funktioniert, standen in dieser Arbeit Lebenszyklus, Fischerei1nanagement und Arterhaltung der Felchen im V ordergrund. Das Untersuchungsgewasser, der Hallwilersee, ist ein Beispiel ftir einen eutrophen Coregonensee im Schweizer Mittelland. Die heutige Zusammensetzung der Fischgesellschaften in Schweizer Seen ist primar das Ergebnis der Neubesiedlung nacheiszeitlicher Gewasser vor ungefahr 15'000 Jahren. Nach dem Rilckzug der Gletscher wanderten Fische aus eisfreien Gebieten in die neuentstandenen Seen ein. Der Hall wilersee ist ein solcher nach- eiszeitlicher See.

  • (Coregonus Lavaretus (L.)) Caused by Competitor Invasion
    Speciation Reversal in European Whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus (L.)) Caused by Competitor Invasion Shripathi Bhat1*, Per-Arne Amundsen1, Rune Knudsen1, Karl Øystein Gjelland3, Svein-Erik Fevolden1, Louis Bernatchez2, Kim Præbel1 1 Department of Arctic and Marine Biology, University of Tromsø, Tromsø, Norway, 2 Institut de Biologie Inte´grative et des Syste`mes (IBIS), Universite´ Laval, Que´bec, Canada, 3 Norwegian Institute for Nature Research, Tromsø, Norway Abstract Invasion of exotic species has caused the loss of biodiversity and imparts evolutionary and ecological changes in the introduced systems. In northern Fennoscandia, European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus (L.)) is a highly polymorphic species displaying adaptive radiations into partially reproductively isolated and thus genetically differentiated sympatric morphs utilizing the planktivorous and benthivorous food niche in many lakes. In 1993, Lake Skrukkebukta was invaded by vendace (Coregonus albula (L.)) which is a zooplanktivorous specialist. The vendace displaced the densely rakered whitefish from its preferred pelagic niche to the benthic habitat harbouring the large sparsely rakered whitefish. In this study, we investigate the potential influence of the vendace invasion on the breakdown of reproductive isolation between the two whitefish morphs. We inferred the genotypic and phenotypic differentiation between the two morphs collected at the arrival (1993) and 15 years after (2008) the vendace invasion using 16 microsatellite loci and gill raker numbers, the most distinctive adaptive phenotypic trait between them. The comparison of gill raker number distributions revealed two modes growing closer over 15 years following the invasion. Bayesian analyses of genotypes revealed that the two genetically distinct whitefish morphs that existed in 1993 had collapsed into a single population in 2008.

  • First Record of a Coregonid Fish Species, Coregenus Albula (Linnaeus, 1758) (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) in Aktaş Lake Shared Between Turkey and Georgia
    J. Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment Vol. 25, No. 3: 325-332 (2019) SHORT COMMUNICATION First record of a coregonid fish species, Coregenus albula (Linnaeus, 1758) (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) in Aktaş Lake shared between Turkey and Georgia Sedat V. Yerli Department of Biology, Hacettepe University, SAL, Beytepe, Ankara, TURKEY Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The genus Coregenus (Salmoniformes: Salmonidae) was recently considered not to be represented in Turkey. European cisco or vendace, Coregonus albula (Linnaeus, 1758) was reported for the first time for Turkey in this article with fifteen samples in Aktaş Lake, Ardahan. This species should be added to the checklist of Turkish fish fauna. Turkish name is proposed as “Akbalık” for this species. Keywords: Coregonus albula, first record, Aktaş Lake, Kartsakhi, alkaline lake, Georgia, Turkey Received: 30.10.2019, Accepted: 26.11.2019 Vendace or European cisco Coregonus albula (Linnaeus, 1758) is a native species for northern Europe. Berg (1948) reported the distribution of this species its morphological measurements in the former USSR and adjacent countries. Froese and Pauly (2019) summarized the natural distribution of vendace as Baltic basin, several lakes of upper Volga drainage; some lakes of White Sea basin and North Sea basin east of Elbe drainage; anadromous in Gulf of Finland and marine in northernmost freshened part of Gulf of Bothnia between Finland and Sweden; in Lake Inari, northern Finland; lower Rhine (now extirpated). The vendace was introduced, intentionally in some countries in Europe and United States of America. Vendace was introduced in 1959, 1982-1987 in the Irtysh River Basin and in 1960-61 in Lake Balkhash in Kazakhstan (Mitrofanov and Petr 1999).

Public domain. Available: http://eol.org/data_objects/26779416. (June 2017). 1 Native Range, and Status in the United States Native Range From Froese and Pauly (2017): “Europe: In the Baltic Sea: Swedish coast (including Bothnian Gulf, not in Gotland); in southern Baltic, extending from the Schlei to Gulf of Finland. Southeast North Sea Basin: Ems, Weser and Elbe drainages 1 and small rivers of Schleswig-Holstein and Denmark. Landlocked in several lakes in Poland, Sweden, and Russia.” Status in the United States From Neilson (2017): “Failed introduction.” “A shipment of 409 individuals from Lake Miedwie (formerly Madue Lake), Poland was stocked in Garnder Lake, Michigan in 1877 (Baird 1879; Todd 1983).” Means of Introductions in the United States From Neilson (2017): “Coregonus maraena, along with other species of Coregonus, was intentionally stocked as a food fish by the U.S. Fish Commission (Todd 1983). According to Baird (1879), 1,000 eggs of C. maraena were shipped from Poland to Michigan in 1877 and hatched in captivity at the State Hatching House in Detroit. A total of 409 of the young fish were stocked in Gardner Lake (Baird 1879; Todd 1983). Baird (1879) considered the stocking an experimental introduction of a European food fish.” Remarks From Neilson (2017): “There is much confusion regarding the identity of whitefish imported from Germany in the late 1800s by the U.S. Fish Commission, primarily due to the uncertain taxonomy and systematics of Coregonus (Kottelat and Freyhof 2007).

  • Change of Phytoplankton Composition and Biodiversity in Lake Sempach Before and During Restoration
    Hydrobiologia 469: 33–48, 2002. S.A. Ostroumov, S.C. McCutcheon & C.E.W. Steinberg (eds), Ecological Processes and Ecosystems. 33 © 2002 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. Change of phytoplankton composition and biodiversity in Lake Sempach before and during restoration Hansrudolf Bürgi1 & Pius Stadelmann2 1Department of Limnology, ETH/EAWAG, CH-8600 Dübendorf, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] 2Agency of Environment Protection of Canton Lucerne, CH-6002 Lucerne, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] Key words: lake restoration, biodiversity, evenness, phytoplankton, long-term development Abstract Lake Sempach, located in the central part of Switzerland, has a surface area of 14 km2, a maximum depth of 87 m and a water residence time of 15 years. Restoration measures to correct historic eutrophication, including artificial mixing and oxygenation of the hypolimnion, were implemented in 1984. By means of the combination of external and internal load reductions, total phosphorus concentrations decreased in the period 1984–2000 from 160 to 42 mg P m−3. Starting from 1997, hypolimnion oxygenation with pure oxygen was replaced by aeration with fine air bubbles. The reaction of the plankton has been investigated as part of a long-term monitoring program.
