| Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
| Salmo salar | Spawning conditions | Spawning site preparation | Females bury their eggs in the gravel substrate in several excavated depression called nests [Males search for females and defend them against potential rivals by attacks and threat displays but do not participate in the choice and construction of redds] | Susbtrate chooser |
