''Salvelinus killinensis'', also known as Haddy charr is a variety of char found in certain lakes in Scotland. It lives in the deeper regions of the lakes, moving to shallower waters only during the spawning season. ''Salvelinus killinensis'' is known to live in Loch Killin (Inverness-shire), after which it is named. It is also found in Loch Doine (Trossachs) and perhaps in Loch Builg (Cairngorms) as well. Recently its presence has been reported in several other lakes of Scotland, although it may be not be ''Salvelinus killinensis'', but a similar species. ==Taxonomy== The taxonomy of charrs is controversial. The Scottish authorities follow the practice to consider all the 200 Scottish char populations, including that of Loch Killin, belonging to the single widespread species ''Salvelinus alpinus'' (the Arctic char).〔(Arctic charr ) Scottish Natural Heritage〕〔(Arctic charr ) The Scottish Government: Marine Scotland]〕 The IUCN Red List however follows division of Scottish (and other) charrs to several local species. In this view other putative Scottish charrs include ''Salvelinus gracillimus'', ''Salvelinus mallochi'', ''Salvelinus struanensis'' and ''Salvelinus youngeri'', and further species would exist elsewhere in the UK and Ireland. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Salvelinus killinensis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
