While digging a hole I came across a few (more than 10) blocks that contained silverfish. After a search for the suspected stronghold nearby, I didn't find anything.
Screenshots show that it really was inside a swamp.

Not a dupe of MC-32982. Look at the biome.
This is not a duplicate of MC-32982. As stated in the title, this occurred in a swamp, not extreme hills.
