When spawning in April or May. in shallow water, I have often heard Rudd make a pout- ing noise with the lips as they have shown part of their dappled bodies above the surface of the river. It will fraternise with other fishes, and hybrids between Roach and Rudd have been recorded. The name is probably derived from the colour of the scales. White Bream.—Blicca hjoemka (Fig. 51). This some- what uninteresting and distinctly local species is also known as the Silver Bream. It is much less common than the next fish upon our list, and is a good deal 95.
