ORDER Salmoniformes j FAMILY Salmomdae SUB-F AMIL Y Coregonidae Salmoninae Thymallinae GENUS Oncorhynchus Salmo Salvelinus SPECIES Salmo trutta Salmo salar Fig. 1. (Legendre, 1980). The three main genera (Salmo, Oncorhynchus, Salvelinus) known to- day appeared more recently (at the start of the Pleistocene) from this common ancestry (Jones, 1959). The separation of the American and Euro-Asiatic continents and the subse- quent succession of glaciation ages of the Pleistocene and recent eras has not only resulted in the differentiation of these three genera but also the appearances of numerous lower level taxa (Jones, 1959; Hoar, 1976). However, according to Tchernavin (1939), anadromous behaviour appeared at the start of the Ice Age. However, Balon (1980) considers that this behaviour existed before speciation in the Salmonid family and that the marine types, mainly of the genus Salmo would have formed the origin of the freshwater forms. From this well-argued theory of Balon (1980), Thorpe (1982) deduced that the salmonids were in fact primitive teleosts, probably of marine origin, and that certain species may have progressively lost their anadromous behaviour.
Introduction: The brown trout (Salmo trutta L.): its origin, distribution and economic and scientific significance.- I. River trout.- 1. Biology of the brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) in French rivers.- 2. The habitat of the brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) in water courses.- 3. Feeding strategy of the brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) in running water.- 4. Social organization and territoriality in brown trout juveniles during ontogeny.- II. Ecological plasticity and genetic diversity in trout.- 1. Main characteristics of the biology of the trout (Salmo trutta L.) in Lake Léman (Lake Geneva) and some of its tributaries.- 2. Sea trout (Salmo trutta L.) in Normandy and Picardy.- 3. Genetic diversity and the management of natural populations of brown trout.- III. The management of natural populations of brown trout.- The management of natural populations of brown trout in France, analysed from an historical perspective (1669–1986).- Conclusion: Current ideas on the biological basis for managementof trout populations (Salmo trutta L.).
