Taxonomic Remarks
A better resolved species level taxonomy and more detailed morphological examination of peri-Mediterranean and African 'macrostigma' trouts is needed and feasible.
Umwelt: Milieu / Klimazone / Tiefenbereich / Verbreitungsgebiet
Ökologie
seewasser; süßwasser; brackwasser benthopelagisch; anadrom (Ref. 51243). Subtropical
Africa: restricted to Algeria (Ref. 13696, 55619, 59043, 87713), also in Mediterranean basins of Morocco (Ref. 107622). The other peri-Mediterranean populations referred to as Salmo macrostigma belong to several species (Ref. 87713).

Kurzbeschreibung
Bestimmungsschlüssel | Morphologie | Morphometrie
Rückenflossenweichstrahlen (insgesamt) : 13 - 15; Afterflossenweichstrahlen: 11 - 13; Wirbelzahl: 57 - 58. Diagnosis: dorsal fin slightly higher than long; located more posteriorly than in other Salmo species; caudal fin more forked than other Salmo species; 8-12 round, black spots (parr marks) on sides (Ref. 4904, 52923, 94703, 94704), which are more prominent in juveniles and are retained in adults (Ref. 55619). Low gill raker count and dark spots on sides distinguish it from S. akairos; it differs from S. trutta in slightly lower vertebral count and pyloric caeca counts, and having the parr marks more conspicuous; 10-11 anal fin pterygiophores (Ref. 55619). 14-17 small scales between adipose fin and lateral line (Ref. 1878, 52923, 55619).
Body shape (shape guide): fusiform / normal; Cross section: oval.
Possesses a particular diet due to poor insular ichthyologic fauna; its food consists mainly of tadpoles, insects and urodela (Ref. 11941).
