Abstract
Landlocked masu salmon Oncorhynchus masou were found in the Dachinskoye Reservoir in the Ussuri River basin (the right tributary of the Amur) in 2012. Results of laboratory analysis of the samples fixed in formaldehyde solution are presented, including the data on fish size, age, sex, and stage of gonad maturity. Concepts of landlocked and migratory forms of masu salmon are overviewed briefly, all known cases of masu salmon habitation in the reservoirs of Primorye are considered.
