Most data were from rivers (80%). The rest was divided between ponds (12%) and canals (8%). The Seine River was the water body the most cited in historic sources (23%) (Tab. III). Major tributaries such as the Yonne, Marne, and Oise rivers and, to a lesser extent, the Eure and Loing rivers were also cited. There were also some observations from smaller streams (Fig. 2).</p> <p>About twenty canals were identified in the documents. The two major ones were the Bourgogne Canal (35%) and the Nivernais Canal (15%), both in the Bourgogne region. There were also many observations for ponds, which were significant fishing reserves for anglers and fish farmers.</p> <p>The data cover a large part of the Seine basin and all the major rivers are mentioned (Fig. 3).</p> <p>A large part of the data was assigned to the regional scale (93%) [30% in Bourgogne, 20% in Champagne-Ardenne, 19% in Île-de-France, 16% in Haute-Normandie, 6% in Picardie, and 2% in Centre], and at the departmental scale (85%). Fifty-eight percent of data was associated with a city or a village, but only 7% was precisely located on a river reach (or a lake or pond).</p> <p>Because we focused our archival research on the modern period, a large majority of data (98.5%) was from the 19 th and 20 th centuries. In anticipation of a probable, future, temporal extension of our database, older data were occasionally recorded in CHIPS. The oldest ones date back to the 16 th century.</p></div> 	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03861E3BFF96FF81FF4121FCC0F4FA81	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
