Abstract(s)

The great majority of European anadromous fishes are threatened species (Leleck, 1980). Despite the existing legal protection for migration fishes, these are vulnerable and particulary threatened by antropogenic impact, by physical obstacles for migrating fish and by physical impacts on spawning and nursery areas.
