==Habitat== [[File:Forel farm Sochi.jpg|thumb|upright=1.15|A trout farm in [[Sochi]], [[Russia]]]] As salmonids, trout are [[coldwater fish]] that are usually found in cool ({{convert|50|-|60|F|C|disp=or}}), clear streams, wetlands and lakes, although many of the species have [[anadromous]] populations as well. Juvenile trout are referred to as troutlet, troutling or parr. They are distributed naturally throughout [[North America]], northern [[Asia]] and [[Europe]]. Several species of trout were introduced to [[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]] by amateur fishing enthusiasts in the 19th century, effectively displacing and endangering several [[Upland and lowland (freshwater ecology)|upland]] native fish species. The introduced species included [[brown trout]] from [[England]] and [[rainbow trout]] from [[California]]. The rainbow trout has a [[steelhead]] subspecies, generally accepted as coming from [[Sonoma Creek]]. The rainbow trout of New Zealand still show the steelhead tendency to run up rivers in winter to spawn.<ref>{{Cite journal |doi = 10.1016/S0165-7836(98)00215-X|title = Spawning of anadromous rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum): A threat to sea trout, Salmo trutta L., populations?|journal = Fisheries Research|volume = 40|pages = 55β63|year = 1999|last1 = Landergren|first1 = Peter| issue=1 | bibcode=1999FishR..40...55L }}</ref> In Australia, the rainbow trout was introduced in 1894 from New Zealand and is an extremely popular gamefish in recreational angling.<ref name="fishes">{{cite web|last1=Gomon|first1=Martin|last2=Bray|first2=Dianne|title=Rainbow Trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss|url=http://www.fishesofaustralia.net.au/home/species/2083|website=Fishes of Australia|access-date=August 30, 2014|archive-date=September 4, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140904090858/http://www.fishesofaustralia.net.au/home/species/2083|url-status=dead}}</ref> Despite severely impacting the distribution and abundance of native Australian fish, such as the [[climbing galaxias]], millions of rainbow and other trout species are released annually from government and private hatcheries.<ref name="fishes" /> The closest resemblance of seema trout and other trout family can be found in the [[Himalayas|Himalayan Region]] of India, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan and in [[Tian Shan]] mountains of [[Kyrgyzstan]].{{clarify|date=November 2019}}
