Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
Hucho hucho | Egg | Temperature for incubation | 5.0-13 is the temperature range for >50% survival to hatch [<1.5 and >15.5°C, lethal lower and upper limit] | 9.0 °C |
Salmo salar | Egg | Temperature for incubation | 0-12.0 is the temperature range for >50% survival to hatch [<0 and >12, lethal lower and upper limit] | 6.0 °C |
Salmo salar | Spawning conditions | Homing | Salmon and trout tend to return from the sea to the river of their birth [Within the river system these anadromous fish and resident trout seek to return to their natal tributary to spawn] | Present |
Salmo salar | Spawning conditions | Spawning water type | Water velocities of 0.204-0.814 cm/s | Flowing or turbulent water |
Salmo salar | Spawning conditions | Spawning depth | 0.15-0.91 m and 0.30-0.45 m given as "optimum" | 0.53 m |
Salmo trutta fario | Egg | Temperature for incubation | 1.4-11.0 is the temperature range for >50% survival to hatch [<1.4 and >15.5, lethal lower and upper limit] | 6.2 °C |
Salmo trutta fario | Spawning conditions | Homing | Salmon and trout tend to return from the sea to the river of their birth [Within the river system these anadromous fish and resident trout seek to return to their natal tributary to spawn] | Present |

Thymallus thymallus | Spawning conditions | Spawning substrate | 5 to 15% of sand, 40-70% of gravel (< 2 cm in diameter), 20-30 % small stones (2-10 cm in diamter) and a few larger stones (>10 cm diameter) | Lithophils |
