Brook Trout
Salvelinus fontinalis
Principais diferenças: Brook Trout typically have vermiculations (worm-like markings) on their back and dorsal fin, and blue halos around red spots, which are absent in Arctic Char. Brook Trout also have a more pronounced square or slightly emarginate caudal fin compared to the Arctic Char's more forked tail.
Lake Trout
Salvelinus namaycush
Principais diferenças: Lake Trout are generally larger, have a deeply forked caudal fin, and typically possess light spots on a darker background, but these spots are usually white or yellowish and lack the red/pink hues often seen in Arctic Char. Lake Trout also have teeth on the vomer shaft, unlike Arctic Char.
Dolly Varden
Salvelinus malma
Principais diferenças: Dolly Varden are very similar and often confused with Arctic Char, especially in areas of sympatry. Historically, they were considered the same species. Dolly Varden typically have smaller, more numerous spots and a slightly different head shape. Genetic analysis is often required for definitive differentiation in overlapping ranges.
