EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, dating back to 1865, showcases the exquisite beauty of Salvelinus willoughbii, also known as Willoughby's Char or Graining Char. A member of the Salmonidae family, this rare and intriguing freshwater or brackish water fish is native to the lakes of the English Lake District, with Windermere being a notable habitat. The Victorian-era photograph, captured in the 1860s, presents the fish in stunning detail, revealing its dark green body speckled with distinctive orange spots. The fish's name, Graining, refers to the fine, evenly spaced spots covering its body, reminiscent of the texture of fine grains. Salvelinus willoughbii is a close relative of both charr and trout, sharing the characteristic adipose fin and prominent dorsal fin. At the time of this photograph, the species was considered a rare find, and its discovery added to the growing body of knowledge about the diverse range of freshwater fish species in the region. The photograph offers a glimpse into the natural history of this fascinating species, transporting us back to a time when the wonders of the natural world were being explored and documented in meticulous detail. Today, the conservation of Salvelinus willoughbii and its habitat remains an important priority, ensuring that future generations can continue to marvel at the beauty and uniqueness of this remarkable fish.
