| Description |
| A large size fish, it has a tapering, long body. Its overall colouring is based on a typical "marble drawing", composed of irregular winding grey lines distributed on a yellowish-grey body. The name of this trout derives by its particular colouring. Only young specimens temporarily present red spots, like brown trout, which disappear during their lifetime. The marmorata trout has well-developed strong teeth, signs of its predatory nature. |
