Summary
Location, occurrence, collection information, and genetic species identification data in support of an analysis of the spatial separation of Lake Whitefish and Cisco larvae in Chaumont Bay, Lake Ontario, the last known spawning area of both species in American waters of Lake Ontario. Genetic species identification of larval coregonines collected between April 2004 and 2015 is provided for larval samples collected from nearshore and offshore areas.

Genetic species identification was conducted on larval coregonines from nearshore and offshore waters of Chaumont Bay (New York), Lake Ontario. The results of the genetic analysis were used to determine if there was differential habitat use between Lake Whitefish and Cisco during their early life history.
