The clarinet jumps registers by the odd harmonics rather than the octave (even harmonics). The natural consequence of this is what appears on the surface to be different fingering systems. Thus the low F is the fundamental (i.e. first harmonic) and the C in the middle of the staff is the 3rd harmonic. So these two notes have the same fingering except for the addition of the register key. It is NOT an octave key as the clarinet cannot be made to jump an octave.
