The Huchen (Hucho hucho} of the Danube is a 

 large predaceous fish, silvery and black spotted like 

 the Salmon, but structurally more nearly related to 

 the Char. The vomer has a raised head, with a 

 hollowed out depression behind it, but the vomerine 

 teeth form a regular transverse series, connecting 

 those of the palatines, whereas in the Char they are 

 arranged more or less definitely in the form of a V- 

 It is to be hoped that attempts to introduce this 

 species into the Thames will prove unsuccessful.
