Abstract

Among the natural hybrids of coregonid fishes in Lake Baikal, the hybrids of the first generation from crossing Arctic cisco Coregonus autumnalis migratorius and lake-river whitefish (pidschian) C. lavaretus pidschian are the most abundant. They are well-identified morphologically. The data of the analysis of allozyme variations confirm the validity of the morphological determination of different Baikal coregonid forms and their hybrids, but do not allow a strict evaluation of its accuracy.
