Thymallus thymallus (Linnaeus 1758)

Grayling Thymallus thymallus (Linnaeus, 1758) The grayling is distributed in the south-eastern and the far northern part of Norway, and is usually considered to be a purely riverliving species (Huitfeldt-Kaas 1918). However, it is also found in numerous lakes, including the largest Norwegian lake – Mjøsa (Huitfeldt-Kaas 1917). Phylogeographic studies have shown that two different evolutionary lineages have immigrated into Norway following deglaciation (Koskinen et al. 2000), however this has not been followed up by more detailed studies. A total of 37 articles were retrieved by the literature search, most of which (almost all) were based on studies from the Glomma riversystem in the south-eastern part of Norway. Glomma is the largest river in Norway, splitting into two main upstream branches; Glomma and Gudbrandsdalslågen. In the upper part of Gudbrandsdalslågen the introduced grayling has been intensively studied during over 30 years. Most of these studies are initiated from the University of Oslo (Vøllestad and Primmer 2019). These studies originally focussed on classical ecological topics (Haugen and Rygg 1996b, Haugen 2000a), but later focussed on evolutionary processes inc
