Andalusian brown trout (Salmo trutta) populations represent the southwestern limit of this species in Europe, show a high genetic diversity,are subjected to extreme habitat conditions and environmental alterations, and are very sensitive to extinction. However, there is a lack of scientific studies on them. A necessary first step to preserve these populations is to describe their spatial distribution. We detected the species in eastern Andalusia along almost 710 km of rivers, finding 38 populations inhabiting streams and reservoirs in the upper reaches of three basins (Guadalquivir, Segura and South) in an altitude range between 200 and 2200 m above sea level. Based on our data, the combination of the described pernicious factors will irreversibly drive to extinction the brown trout populations of Sierra Nevada in a close future. | |
