Taxonomy

Name

The English word "char" is thought to derive from Old Irish ceara/cera meaning " red," referring to its pink-red underside. This would also connect with its Welsh name torgoch, "red belly."

Biology

Salvelinus colii spawns in November/December. Feeds on benthic and planktonic invertebrates.
