Salmo trutta Linnaeus 1758 



Brown Trout (North America); the Trout, Lochleven Trout (British Isles); 

 European Trout (Continental Europe) 



Figure 3 



The Brown Trout, introduced from Europe to North America, is similar in general 

 appearance to the Atlantic Salmon {S. salar) but is distinguished from it by the characters 

 given on pp. 459-461. It is easily separable from the brook trout {Salvelinus fontinalis) 

 and from the Arctic charr {Salvelinus alpinus) by its much larger scales, its black- 

 spotted sides, and the presence of one zig-zag row (or two alternating rows) of sharp, 

 well-defined teeth (easily felt) along the shaft of the vomer in the midline of the roof 

 of the mouth. As in other salmonids, the Brown Trout in the sea is silvery in color. 

 In Europe, where this species is indigenous, anadromous populations were formerly 



20. The reference in Neaves Nomenclator to Geoffrey, 1764, is erroneous, based on a mistake of Sherborn's. The 

 work was in fact by Garsault, and is not binomial; this information is contributed by Dr. E.Trewavas of the 

 British Museum (Natural History), who is preparing a note about it for Bull. Zool. Nomencl.
