Male sneaking behaviour can lead to interspecific hybridisation if sneakers attempt to fertilise ova in heterospecific mating, contributing to break down of interspecific barriers. In south European rivers, sneaking Atlantic salmon males fertilise an important proportion of ova from adult females in heterospecific crosses, up to 65%. In a south French flow-controlled stream, we found that they were able to naturally fertilise brown trout ova in absence of brown trout males. Aggressiveness of brown trout males towards sneaking salmon males and low survival of hybrids issued from salmon sneakers are found to be interspecific barriers.
