Continent of origin of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) at West Greenland
Scale samples collected from home waters in Europe and North America in 1982 and 1983 were used to determine if the 1980 database of Reddin (1986) could be used as a reliable basis for classifying fish caught in other years. These samples, when classified and compared with their known origin, indica...

Scale samples collected from home waters in Europe and North America in 1982 and 1983 were used to determine if the 1980 database of Reddin (1986) could be used as a reliable basis for classifying fish caught in other years. These samples, when classified and compared with their known origin, indicated misclassifications of only 6·6% and 4·6%, respectively. Small biases of 0·4% and 0·9%, respectively, were noted in favour of European salmon.
