Adjusted species bounding box from 71°N/34°N/25°W/42°E to 70°N/34°N/11°W/42°E. Recalculated environmental envelopes. Increased sea surface temperature minimum from 5.2°C to 7.9°C. Map shows predicted native range. Not in Iceland. Extinct and possibly extinct in much of its native range. Current range is restricted only to Garonne River, France (https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/230/242530547 ). Possible occurrences in the Gulf of Bothnia, Gulf of Riga, and White Sea not captured.
