Summary of project, results, and discussion for the study completed by Christopher W. Hoagstrom, Thomas P. Archdeacon, Stephen R. Davenport, David L. Propst, and James E. Brooks. Summary written by the Great Plains Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GP LCC).
Intrafragment ecology is little studied for imperiled riverine fishes although river fragmentation and habitat loss increasingly threaten sensitive species. A long-term population-monitoring program in the Pecos River, New Mexico, provided detailed data for 15 annual cohorts of speckled chub (Macrhybopsis aestivalis), which were used to assess intrafragment patterns in recruitment and year-class strength in relation to distributional patterns, flow-regime characteristics, and air temperature. Cohorts avoided a degraded upstream reach. Age-1 and older individuals had distributions consistently centered within a central, relict-ecosystem reach that contained high-quality habitat. Age-0 individuals were widespread...
