Download or read book Field Key to the Freshwater Fishes of British Columbia written by British Columbia. Resources Inventory Committee. Aquatic Inventory Task Force and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With growing public concern about biodiversity and conservation, inaccurate identification of wild species is becoming more important. This set of keys to British Columbia fishes is an attempt to provide rapid and dependable field identifications of freshwater fish by those who are not taxonomists, unlike traditional keys which are designed for use with preserved specimens and are filled with obscure jargon and complicated directions. Information is included in this guide that is rarely incorporated in traditional keys, such as where a fish was caught (geographic locality and site-specific habitat) and what it looks like when alive. To simplify the keys, the guide divides the province into eight zoogeographic regions, generally corresponding to major drainage basins. The appendix contains a conventional key for use on preserved material and includes all the species known to occur in British Columbia.

Download or read book Fish stream Identification Guidebook written by British Columbia. Ministry of Forests and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British Columbia Forest Practices Code specifies planning and operational guidelines for each phase of timber harvesting operations around streams, lakes, and wetlands. This guide describes suitable practices to meet the objectives of the riparian management regulations within the Code, specifically the requirement to correctly identify streams on the basis of fish presence in order to ensure the protection of fish populations and habitats during all phases of forest harvesting. The guide defines the classes of streams distinguished for aquatic ecosystem and riparian zone management, identifies fish species that define a stream as fish-bearing under the Code, and describes factors influencing fish-stream identification such as stream reach, gradient, stream size, natural barriers, and fisheries sensitive zones. The guide concludes with methods for identifying fish streams, including measurement, sampling, data recording, and mapping procedures.
