Occasionally, the Alemannic dialects spoken in other countries are grouped together with Swiss German as well, especially the dialects of Liechtenstein and Austrian Vorarlberg, which are closely associated to Switzerland's. Linguistically, Alemannic is divided into Low, High and Highest Alemannic, varieties all of which are spoken both inside and outside Switzerland. The only exception within German-speaking Switzerland is the municipality of Samnaun, where a Bavarian dialect is spoken. The reason Swiss German dialects constitute a special group is their a ...

picture info	Freshwater Whitefish The freshwater whitefish are fishes of the subfamily Coregoninae, which contains whitefishes (both freshwater and anadromous) and ciscoes, and is one of three subfamilies in the salmon family Salmonidae. Apart from the subfamily Coregoninae, the family Salmonidae includes the salmon, trout, and char species of the subfamily Salmoninae, and grayling species of the subfamily Thymallinae. Freshwater whitefish are distributed mainly in relatively cool waters throughout the northern parts of the Northern Hemisphere. The Coregoninae subfamily consists of three nominal genera: ''Coregonus'' Linnaeus, 1758 – whitefishes and ciscoes, which according to some authors number more than 60 species. There are differing opinions on the classification of some species within the genus and the overall number of species. Some species in Arctic regions of Asia and North America forage in marine waters. ''Prosopium'' Jordan, 1878 – round whitefishes, which includes six species, three of which ...

picture info	Coregonus Bavaricus ''Coregonus bavaricus'', the Ammersee kilch, is a species of freshwater whitefish endemic to Lake Ammersee in the German state of Upper Bavaria. A small, silver-colored fish, it typically lives between deep, though shallower in the summer months. In the early 20th century the Ammersee kilch was an important commercial species, but its population declined drastically in the 1930s onward due to overfishing and eutrophication of the only lake in which it is found. Today it is listed as Critically Endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and may be on the verge of extinction. Taxonomy The Ammersee kilch was first described in 1909 by German fishery scientist Bruno Hofer in his work ''Die Süsswasserfische von Mittel-Europa''. Hofer thought it a subspecies of the Lake Constance whitefish, now extinct, so he named it ''Coregonus acronius bavarica''. ''Coregonus acronius'' was the scientific name of the Lake Constance whitefish at the time. The Ammers ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Coregonus Pidschian The humpback whitefish (''Coregonus pidschian''), also referred to as the bottom whitefish, the Arctic whitefishKottelat, M. and Freyhof, J. 2007. Handbook of European Freshwater Fishes. Publications Kottelat, Cornol, Switzerland. or the pidschian, is a species of freshwater whitefish with a northern distribution. It is one of the members in the broader common whitefish complex, or the ''Coregonus clupeaformis'' complex. This fish lives in estuaries and brackish water near river mouths, in deltas and in slowly running rivers, in large lakes with tributaries, and floodplain lakes. It can migrate long distances upriver for spawning. The distribution of ''Coregonus pidschian'' is in the Arctic basin, ranging from Northern Norway and Finland across the Russian coast to Alaska Alaska ( ; russian: Аляска, Alyaska; ale, Alax̂sxax̂; ; ems, Alas'kaaq; Yup'ik: ''Alaskaq''; tli, Anáaski) is a state located in the Western United States on the northwest extremity of Nort ...

picture info	Coregonus Lavaretus ''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.
