: Body elongate, slender. Greatest body depth anterior of the dorsalfin. Ventral profile and dorsal profile similar and slightly arched. Dorsal and ventral profile from tip of snout to interorbital mostly straight and then slightly convex to dorsal and pelvic fin origin respectively. Head long. Snout often 40-50° angle to the body axis anterior of the eye, such that the profile from the tip of the snout to the vertical projection where the anterior part of the eye crosses the dorsal profile is straight and afterwards slightly convex. Mouth (i.e., width of upper and lower jaw) wide, long and often terminal and only rarely slightly sub-terminal. Snout mostly wider than deep, not strongly pronounced, since the tip of the snout is often fleshy and roundish. Large eye, which is more pronounced in specimens from Lake Brienz. Individuals from both lakes have a thin and roundish eye-socket from the middle to the outer margins. Pectoral fin long and moderately tapered. Anterior unbranched ray of the erected dorsal fin range from almost vertically straight to an approx. 70-80° angle to body axis and only bent slightly posteriorly at the end of the ray. Caudal peduncle narrow and elongated with caudal fin forked and sometimes moderately to strongly asymmetrical with either the ventral or dorsal part being longer. Unbranched ray of anal fin straight and rarely bent posteriorly at the end of the ray. Anal fin longest anteriorly and progressively shortening posteriorly with the outer margin of the anal fin slightly concave.

: Pigmentation of fins and body overall weak in live specimens. In specimens from Lake Thun the pectoral fin is translucent, sometimes yellowish with faint pigmentation at the median to distal parts of the fin. Pelvic fin is translucent and only weakly to moderately pigmented. Dorsal, adipose, anal and caudal fins are moderately pigmented. In specimens from Lake Brienz all fins are translucent, with the dorsal, anal and caudal fins sometimes showing some very faint pigmentation. In both lakes fish have a silvery appearance along the flanks and dorsally above the lateral line the silvery appearance changes to a pale rose colouration (e.g., RGB (247, 187, 175)) and then to a pale brown (e.g., RGB (230, 202, 110)). In specimens from Lake Thun the flanks very rarely have few pigmented small dots on the scales. Distribution of dots are bound

In specimens from Lake Brienz the upper dorsum ranges from pale brown (e.g., RGB (230, 202, 110)) to a light green colouration (e.g., RGB (136, 245, 205)) and sometimes has pigmented dots more or less in a row on the upper dorsum that are rather large (&quot;cheetah look&quot;) (Suppl. material 1: Figure S7).

. For a comparison to the main colouration found in the other species see Suppl. material 1: Figure S8. Dorsal part of head of specimens of Lake Brienz is weakly pigmented, whereas that of specimens from Lake Thun is moderately pigmented. Snout around the nostrils is weakly (Lake Brienz) to moderately (Lake Thun) pigmented with a gap of little pigmentation posteriorly of the nostrils up to the height of the middle of the eyes. Operculum and pre-operculum are silvery with one black dot on the lower margin of the pre-operculum. Preserved specimens are pale in colouration with similar pigmentation as described for live specimens. The silvery,translucent,not coloured or unpigmented parts of the body become brown-yellowish (e.g., RGB (239, 210, 40)), whereas the pigmented parts are conserved and the coloured parts (dorsally above the lateral line) become brownish (e.g., RGB (186, 140, 100)).

It is to note that the habitat-stratified random sampling data for both lakes only covers a short period of time (one month in late summer) and it is thus not clear how the species are distributed spatially through the rest of the year. Furthermore, the habitat-stratified random sampling in both lakes did not distinguish between ripe and unripe specimens, and thus in the case of

the distribution pattern along the depth in the benthic zone is biased by the spawning aggregation of this species since the sampling period in both lakes coincides with the main spawning season of this species. Most of the whitefish that were phenotypically assigned as
