Salvelinus spp
The perialpine lakes of Switzerland form the southern geographic range limit of the genus Salvelinus (lake char). Officially, one species of Salvelinus is currently native to Switzerland according to federal law (VBGF): Salvelinus umbla. This species naturally occurs in all deep perialpine lakes nor...
