Although piscivorous forms of Salmo trutta 26 have been widely reported, other trophic foraging specialists are strangely rarely recorded 27 amongst Salmo species. Microsatellite and mitochondrial genetic data segregated Salmo 28 trutta collected from Loch Laidon, Scotland, into four distinct genetic groups. Three groups 29 analysed in this study showed significant differences in body shape, stomach contents, 30 muscle stable isotope signature, gill raker length and spacing, and habitat use. We conclude 31 that the three genetically defined groups comprise: a generalist foraging morph, a pelagic- 32 feeding specialist morph and a profundal macrobenthos feeding morph. The features 33 distinguishing these morphs however, show a degree of overlap. This appears to be only the 34 second record of invertebrate resource use partitioning associated with expression of 35 alternative morphologies in sympatry this species and the first report of a profundal feeding 36 morph. Why such polymorphisms are generally rare in Salmo species still remains unclear, 37 however potential explanations are discussed. 38 39 KEYWORDS: ecotypes – evolutionary – divergence – polymorphism - Salmonidae 40 41 INTRODUCTION 42 The patterns of structuring of phenotypes and genotypes found within a single species in 43 the wild have the potential to provide insights into the very beginnings of the evolutionary 44 processes that may ultimately result in new species (Snorrason & Skulason, 2004). Complex 45 intraspecific structuring is now relatively well documented in many freshwater fishes 46 (Fevolden et al., 2012). It is particularly prevalent amongst fishes from the northern 47 hemisphere that live in freshwater lakes that were glaciated during the Quaternary period 48 (Skulason & Smith, 1996). Where intraspecific structuring occurs between unconnected 49 waters, it is generally thought to be the result of differential selection pressures operating at 50 a local population level (Garant, Forde & Hendry, 2007); the effects of phenotypic plasticity 51 responding to differing local environmental conditions (Adams, Woltering, & Alexander, 52 2003b); the random effects of genetic drift (Frazer & Rusello, 2013); or some combination of 53 these (Adams & Huntingford, 2004; Alexander & Adams, 2004). In a number of places 54 however, the pattern of intraspecific structuring exhibits greater complexity and therefore 55 more complex explanations for the processes resulting in its formation are likely to be 56 required. 57 Such situations offer opportunities to explore more deeply, early evolutionary processes 58 (Smith & Skulason, 1996; Skulason, Snorrason & Jonsson, 1999). One such situation is where 59 a single waterbody supports two or more clearly defined alternative phenotypic and/or 60 genotypic groups from a single species. Amongst fishes there have been a number of 61 reports of sympatric morphs, ecotypes or forms, particularly, although not solely, from 62 lake-dwelling species (Pakkasmaa & Piironen, 2001; Adams et al., 2016). Where such 63 sympatric morphs exist, evidence of distinct ecological differences between them is also 64 commonly reported (Skulason & Smith, 1995; Skulason et al., 1999; Jonsson & Jonsson, 65 2001). Most frequently, sympatric phenotypic polymorphisms manifest as divergence across 66 the littoral – pelagic habitats (Knudsen et al., 2006) or less frequently across littoral – 67 profundal habitats (Hooker et al., 2016). Such polymorphisms are recognised as an 68 important evolutionary step towards the emergence of new species (Maynard Smith, 1966; 69 Dieckmann & Doebeli, 1999; Snorrason & Skulason, 2004) 70 Amongst the fish genera that are commonly found in recently glaciated fresh waters, there 71 is considerable documented evidence of a common pattern of sympatric polymorphism 72 exhibiting partitioning of feeding resources by foraging specialists (Table I). Such patterns 73 are widely reported amongst fishes of the Salmonidae family (Skulason & Smith, 1995) 74 (Table I). Amongst species of the Salmo genus, piscivorous specialist forms, usually living in 75 sympatry with littoral benthos feeders, are relatively widely reported in Salmo trutta 76 (Hughes et al., 2016). However discrete and sympatric foraging specialisations across the 77 available invertebrate foraging resources now widely reported for other salmonid genera is 78 rarely reported in Salmo (Behnke, 1972). 79 This study describes a rarely reported phenotypic and ecological divergence of three or four 80 serendipitously discovered sympatric populations in the brown trout, Salmo trutta L. 1758. 81 Originally resolved by population genetic analysis (Verspoor et al., submitted), this study 82 tests the following hypotheses, that: 83 1) S. trutta categorised into the three distinct genetic groups are also morphologically 84 segregated. 85 2) Distinct genetic groups exhibit different foraging ecologies. 86 3) Variation in morphology and foraging ecology are linked. 87 88 METHODS 89 STUDY SITE AND SAMPLING METHOD 90 Loch Laidon (56° 39’ 56.65” N, 004° 40’ 4.6667” W) is an oligotrophic lake 283 m above sea 91 level on Rannoch Moor, Perthshire, Scotland. The lake is approximately 8 km long, 4 km2 in 92 area, with a maximum depth of 39 m and a mean depth of 10.7 m (Murray & Pullar, 1910). 93 The catchment is dominated by open heather (Ericaceae) moorland (McLeod, et al., 2005; 94 Shilland, et al. 2011). Campbell (1979) reports S.trutta, Atlantic salmon Salmo salar (L. 95 1758), perch Perca fluviatilis (L. 1758) and Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus (L. 1758) in Loch 96 Laidon. The contemporary status of this latter species however is uncertain as it has not 97 been collected during recent sampling there (see Verspoor et al. submitted). 98 As a full fish sampling protocol is presented elsewhere (Verspoor et al. submitted) only 99 pertinent details are presented here (Table S1). S. trutta were collected from Loch Laidon 100 during May 2008 using both benthic and pelagic Nordic pattern gillnets, which are non- 101 selective for salmonids between 45 and 495 mm (fork length) (Appelberg et al., 1995). 102 Bathymetric data (Murray & Pullar, 1910) were used to define a random stratified sampling 103 design for four habitats: benthic littoral (< 6m water depth); benthic sub-littoral (6 – 20 m 104 depth); benthic profundal (defined as >20 m depth) and the pelagic habitat, (sampled with a 105 6m deep floating net set from the surface above ca 30 m deep water). All nets were 106 deployed over one night; all S. trutta caught, were killed on

    Identification and Modelling of a Representative Vulnerable Fish Species for Pesticide Risk Assessment in Europe Von der Fakultät für Mathematik, Informatik und Naturwissenschaften der RWTH Aachen University zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Naturwissenschaften genehmigte Dissertation vorgelegt von Lara Ibrahim, M.Sc. aus Mazeraat Assaf, Libanon Berichter: Universitätsprofessor Dr. Andreas Schäffer Prof. Dr. Christoph Schäfers Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 30. Juli 2015 Diese Dissertation ist auf den Internetseiten der Universitätsbibliothek online verfügbar Erklärung Ich versichere, dass ich diese Doktorarbeit selbständig und nur unter Verwendung der angegebenen Hilfsmittel angefertigt habe. Weiterhin versichere ich, die aus benutzten Quellen wörtlich oder inhaltlich entnommenen Stellen als solche kenntlich gemacht zu haben. Lara Ibrahim Aachen, am 18 März 2015 Zusammenfassung Die Zulassung von Pflanzenschutzmitteln in der Europäischen Gemeinschaft verlangt unter anderem eine Abschätzung des Risikos für Organismen in der Umwelt, die nicht Ziel der Anwendung sind. Unvertretbare Auswirkungen auf den Naturhalt sollen vermieden werden. Die ökologische Risikoanalyse stellt die dafür benötigten Informationen durch eine Abschätzung der Exposition der Organismen und der sich daraus ergebenden Effekte bereit. Die Effektabschätzung beruht dabei hauptsächlich auf standardisierten ökotoxikologischen Tests im Labor mit wenigen, oft nicht einheimischen Stellvertreterarten. In diesen Tests werden z. B. Effekte auf das Überleben, das Wachstum und/oder die Reproduktion von Fischen bei verschiedenen Konzentrationen der Testsubstanz gemessen und Endpunkte wie die LC50 (Lethal Concentrations for 50%) oder eine NOEC (No Observed Effect Concentration, z. B. für Wachstum oder Reproduktionsparameter) abgeleitet. Für Fische und Wirbeltiere im Allgemeinen beziehen sich die spezifischen Schutzziele auf das Überleben von Individuen und die Abundanz und Biomasse von Populationen.

  • Trout and Char of Central and Southern Europe and Northern Africa
    12 Trout and Char of Central and Southern Europe and Northern Africa Javier Lobón-Cerviá, Manu Esteve, Patrick Berrebi, Antonino Duchi, Massimo Lorenzoni, Kyle A. Young Introduction !e area of central and southern Europe, the Mediterranean, and North Africa spans a wide range of climates from dry deserts to wet forests and temperate maritime to high alpine. !e geologic diversity, glacial history, and long human history of the region have interacted with broad climatic gradients to shape the historical and cur- rent phylogeography of the region’s native trout and char. !e current distributions and abundances of native species are determined in large part by their fundamental niches (i.e., clean, cold water with high dissolved oxygen). Brown Trout Salmo trutta are relatively common and widespread in the northern and mountainous areas of the region but occur in isolated headwater populations in the warmer southern areas of the region. !ese southern areas provided glacial refugia for salmonids and today har- bor much of the region’s phylogenetic diversity. Despite relatively narrow ecologi- cal requirements in terms of water quality, native and invasive trout and char occur throughout the region’s rivers, lakes, estuaries, and coastal waters. Despite having only a single widely recognized native trout species, the region’s range of environments has produced a remarkable diversity of life histories ranging from dwarf, stunted, short and long-lived, small- and large-sized, stream-resident, lake-resident, fluvial potamo- dromous, adfluvial potamodromous, and anadromous (see Chapter 7). Only one trout and one char are native to the region, Brown Trout and Alpine Char Salvelinus umbla.

PATTT.O %o.S- S3. LONDON: PRINTED BY ORDER OF THE TRUSTEES. 1866. PBEFACE. DK. GUNTHEB observes,—" This volume contains the continuation of the families of Physostomi. At the commencement of my account of this order it was my intention to adopt it with the limits assigned to it by Muller, and to distinguish the Scombresoces as a distinct order, viz. Malacopterygii pliaryngognathi; however, during the progress of a detailed examination of these fishes so many points of affinity with the Cyprinodontes became apparent, that I was reluctantly obliged to deviate still more from Muller's ordinal division. " The Salmonidae and the vast literature on this family offer so many and so great difficulties to the Ichthyologist, that as much patience and time are required for the investigation of a single species as in other fishes for that of a whole family. The ordinary method followed by naturalists in distinguishing and determining species, is here utterly inadequate; and I do not hesitate to assert that no one, however experienced in the study of other families of fishes, will be able to find his way through this labyrinth of varia­ tions without long preliminary study, and without a good collection for constant comparison.

The sea trout, spawning in the small tributaries of the Tweed, were :cred:dnantly age 2.14 and 3.1+ maiden spawners with aslight preponderance of females. Upstream migration in these small burns appeared influsnced by rate. of flow and/or water level. Spawning brown trout were rc:st1y age 2± and 3± with a male to tamale ratio of 6 to 1, Male brown trout spent an average of 145 days on L1n apasming grounds while females remained only 2-S days. Tagging studies, of brown trout indicated summer residence in the L.aad with limited movcment until migration upstream entering the burns to spawn in the autumn. The dcnsLreac movement of sea trout fry immediately after emergence appears influenced by rate of flow, Difficulties were encountered in the estimation of age, growth, population size and mortality of trout under 3 veers of age because of the amount of immigration into and emigration out of areas of the study streams.
