About this book

Synthesizes the biology and ecology of the species, and provides the reader with the results of recent research. Dealing with the trout's origins, the distribution area and the economic and scientific interest in the trout, the book goes on to examine different forms of the fish, its genetic diversity, and the management of wild trout populations in relation to its ecological potential and man's activities on the river habitat.
