Nomi comuni esteri - Inglese - Lake Thingvalla large benthivorous charr.

Non sono note fonti letterarie che descrivano nello specifico questa forma di salmerino presente nel Loch Maree. La popolazione non è stata ancora descritta in modo formale, di conseguenza non esiste una nomenclatura linneana ufficiale. Al momento considerata ecotipo di S. alpinus.
