|
| 7. | The last specimens of deepwater ciscoes were recorded in Lake Huron in 1952 and Lake Michigan in 1951.
|
| 8. | This classification is not natural however : based on molecular data, ciscoes comprise two distinct lineages within the genus.
|
| 9. | The commercial catch peaked around the 1930s when about one-third of the catch of ciscoes was this species.
|
| 10. | In previous taxonomic classifications, the ciscoes have been identified as a subgenus " Leucichthys " of the genus " Coregonus ".
