Description
Observations of Salmo salar were collected from the Baltic Sea area for HELCOM Red List species list.
The HELCOM Red List of Baltic Sea species in danger of becoming extinct (2013) is the first threat assessment for Baltic Sea species that covers all marine mammals, fish, birds, macrophytes (aquatic plants), and benthic invertebrates, and follows the Red List criteria of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Almost 2800 species were considered in the Red List assessment and about 1750 were evaluated according to the IUCN Red List criteria.
Salmo salar has been placed to the Red List category of Vulnerable (VU) species.
The map shows the sub-basins in the HELCOM area where the species is known to occur regularly (HELCOM 2012). Reproduction only takes place in rivers.
