==Distribution== Blicca bjoerkna is distributed across most of Europe and in adjacent Western Asia. The natural distribution, though, excludes peripheral areas such as northern Sweden, northern Finland and Norway, and most parts of the British Isles (except Southern England), as well as the Iberian and Italian peninsulas. Introduced populations occur also in Spain and Italy. The Asian distribution is in the Caspian Sea and Aral Sea basins, and in Anatolian Black Sea drainages.
