FIELD OBSERVATIONS ON A MATING ATTEMPT OF A SPAWNING GRAYLING, THYMALLUS-THYMALLUS WITH A FEEDING BARBEL, BARBUS-BARBUS

[en] During the spawning period of the grayling, one male was sexually stimulated by a feeding barbel and consequently exhibited the behavioural pattern of 'approach', 'quivering' and 'dorsal fin clasping'.
