Patterns of hybridization among cutthroat trout and rainbow trout in northern Rocky Mountain streams
Introgressive hybridization between native and introduced species is a growing conservation concern. For native cutthroat trout and introduced rainbow trout in western North America, this process is thought to lead to the formation of hybrid swarms and the loss of monophyletic evolutionary lineages. Previous studies of this phenomenon, however, indicated that hybrid swarms were rare except when...
متن کاملMechanisms Limiting a Vertebrate Invasion: Brook Trout in Mountain Streams
I used multiple approaches to study brook trout invasions in mountainous streams of Idaho and Montana, USA. After studying marked fish in experimental reaches and fish distributions throughout a drainage, I concluded that larger brook trout (95mm) moved more than smaller ones and were probably responsible for most dispersal leading to invasion. Contrary to earlier hypotheses, poor swimming abil...
متن کاملHave brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) displaced bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) along longitudinal gradients in central Idaho streams?
Invasions of non-native brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) have the potential for upstream displacement or elimination of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) and other native species already threatened by habitat loss. We summarized the distribution and number of bull trout in samples from 12 streams with and without brook trout in central Idaho and used hierarchical regression analysis to con...
متن کاملPersistence of Colorado River Cutthroat Trout Populations in Isolated Headwater Streams of Wyoming
—For populations of cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii, isolation in headwater streams may provide protection from invasion by nonnative species but also may enhance a population’s vulnerability to extirpation. We assessed the risk of extirpation for eight Colorado River cutthroat trout O. clarkii pleuriticus populations isolated above water diversion structures in the North Fork Little Snake...
متن کاملINFLUENCE OF NON-NATIVE TROUT ON NATIVE NON-GAME FISH IN NEBRASKA HEADWATER STREAMS By
The direct predatory effects of introduced rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss on native longnose dace Rhinichthys cataractae were examined using a series of in-stream enclosures to determine if presence, density, or acclimation period of rainbow trout influenced survival of longnose dace. The number of longnose dace remaining in enclosures over the first 72 hours after rainbow trout introduction...
