www.lsc.usgs.gov — Freshwater bivalves, which are among the most threatened animals in North America, present significant challenges to conservation biologists that attempt to maintain ecological and evolutionary processes within and among populations. Effective management of this rare fauna is often complicated because inadequate information exists for More...

www.lsc.usgs.gov — Freshwater mussels are declining rapidly in response to habitat degradation associated with anthropogenic changes. Williams et. al. (1993) reported that 213 of the 297 recognized taxa are considered endangered, threatened, or of special concern. There is a documented need for BRD centers to provide guidance on freshwater mussel ecology in general, More...

wfrc.usgs.gov — Bull trout in the western United States are now listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. One cause of bull trout population declines is fish passage issues caused by dams and diversion structures. In order to best design or modify culverts and other fish passage structures in watersheds where bull trout are present, baseline swimming More...

www.usgs.gov — Nearly 40 percent of fish species in North American streams, rivers and lakes are now in jeopardy, according to the most detailed evaluation of the conservation status of freshwater fishes in the last 20 years. The 700 fishes now listed represent a staggering 92 percent increase over the 364 listed as "imperiled" in the previous 1989 study More...
