Combining morphological and genetic analysis, we compared patterns of diversification within and between morphs among sympatric European whitefish ( Coregonus lavaretus L.) populations in Lake Femund, Norway. Seven external populations, from potential colonization routes into Lake Femund were included. We found that deep-, shallow-, river- and bay spawning populations are distinct morphs in Lake Femund. Within morphs, populations range from being similar genetically (Fst = 0–0.005) among deep-spawning populations to being highly differentiated (Fst = 0.153) between bay-spawning populations. Between morphs, genetic differences ranged from a low (Fst = 0.008–0.022) between deep- and shallow-spawning populations to high difference (Fst = 0.125–0.143) between shallow- and bay-spawning populations. A higher proportion of molecular variance was seen among (3.9%) than within morphs (2.8%). The adaptive gene combinations behind the four morphs seem to have originated within the lake, although the lake could have been colonized from more than one source population.
