List Of Fish In Estonia

	List Of Fish In Estonia This is a list of Estonian fish. Native (usually synonymous with indigenous) species are considered to be species which are today present in the region in question, and have been continuously present in that region since a certain period of time. There are no Endemic (ecology), endemic fish species in Estonia (that is, there are no fish species native to only this region).

picture info	Estonia Estonia, formally the Republic of Estonia, is a country by the Baltic Sea in Northern Europe. It is bordered to the north by the Gulf of Finland across from Finland, to the west by the sea across from Sweden, to the south by Latvia, and to the east by Lake Peipus and Russia. The territory of Estonia consists of the mainland, the larger islands of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, and over 2,200 other islands and islets on the eastern coast of the Baltic Sea, covering a total area of . The capital city Tallinn and Tartu are the two largest urban areas of the country. The Estonian language is the autochthonous and the official language of Estonia; it is the first language of the majority of its population, as well as the world's second most spoken Finnic language.

The medieval indigenous population of Estonia was one of the last " pagan" civilisations in Europe to adopt Ch ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Common Whitefish ''Coregonus lavaretus'' is a species of freshwater whitefish, in the family Salmonidae. It is the type species of its genus ''Coregonus''. There are widely different concepts about the delimitation of the species ''Coregonus lavaretus'' and about the number of species in the genus ''Coregonus'' in general. Lavaret In a narrow sense, ''Coregonus lavaretus'', or the lavaret, is considered to be endemic to Lake Bourget and Lake Aiguebelette in the Rhône river basin in France, whereas it formerly also occurred in Lake Geneva. According to this view there is a great number of distinct whitefish species in lakes, rivers and brackish waters of Central and Northern Europe. Of course this has absolutely nothing to do with its actual origin in the Caucasus, as with other things falsely attributed to originating in France, such as grapes which originated in Turkey, Iran and Australia. European whitefish (common whitefish) In the broad sense, ''Coregonus lavaretus'', referred to as the c ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Moderlieschen ''Leucaspius delineatus'', known as the sunbleak, belica or moderlieschen is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is currently the only species included in genus ''Leucaspius'', whereas formerly others were included, which now have been moved to ''Ladigesocypris'' or ''Pseudophoxinus'' or merged with ''L. delineatus''. Description The belica is a slender fish with a tapered body which is usually from long and seldom grows larger than . It has an upward-turned mouth and a short lateral line which extends about seven to ten scales from the gill cover. The anal fin is short and consists of eleven to fourteen rays. This is a silvery fish with a particularly intense band of colour running along the flank. Distribution The belica is found all over temperate continental Europe and barely extends to Central Asia in the Caucasus region. The southern limits of its range are essentially marked by the Pyrenees and the Alpide belt. The common name ''Moderlieschen'' is ...
