Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pantosteus, a subgenus of Catostomus, includes the mountain sucker (Catostomus playthyrnchus), whose speculated older origins in the Miocene/Pliocene can provide insight into the ancient geographical events of western North America. We believe that major geologic events influencing the diversification of mountain suckers include the rise of the Colorado Plateau, the connections between the ancient Snake River system and the Lahontan system and subsequently the connection of the Snake River system to the Columbia Basin, dispersal of mountain suckers across the continental divide, as well as the Pleistocene Bonneville flood. If this is true, we should see evidence of geologic separation and timing through studying the phylogenetics of the mountain sucker. In order to clarify relationships of the mountain sucker with respect to other Pantosteus species, we examined cytochrome b (cyt b) sequences for 144 mountain suckers, 24 other Pantosteus species, and ten outgroup species. Phylogenetic relationships among haplotypes were constructed based on maximum likelihood and Bayesian criterion. In an effort to provide better resolution at some nodes, we also sequenced additional mitochondrial genes (ND1, ND2, ATPase, ND4L, ND4, ND5, ND6, and cyt b) for a subset of 44 individuals taken from the major clades obtained from the cyt b phylogentic analyses. Trees from this data set were also constructed under maximum likelihood and Bayesian criterion. All phylogenetic analysis revealed that mountain sucker are paraphyletic, with two major clades of mountain suckers separated by other members of the subgenus Pantosteus. One clade included two sub-clades, one from the upper Snake River drainage/northern Bonneville/Green River drainage Basins and the other from the southern Bonneville Basin. The other major clade included sub-clades from the Lahontan Basin, Columbia River Basin, and Upper Missouri River Basin. Molecular clock analysis revealed that Pantosteus likely split from Catostomus during the Miocene and that major speciation events within Pantosteus occurred during the Pliocene and Pleistocene. Genetic structuring and gene flow estimates for mountain sucker populations, with groupings based on major drainage basins, were calculated with AMOVA and Fst estimates in Arlequin and revealed that most of the genetic structuring was explained by variation among drainage basins with limited gene flow occurring between drainage basins. Based on this study, the role of the Colorado Plateau's geologic history in the evolution of the mountain sucker remains unclear. However, all other geologic events as discussed in this study seem to have played a significant role in the evolution of the mountain sucker.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The threat of deteriorating habitats and a loss of biodiversity make this reference work on the freshwater fishes of British Columbia more necessary than ever before. Eighty-one comprehensive species accounts aid accurate identification and consist of an illustration, the scientific and common names of the fish, its distinguishing characteristics, taxonomic comments, geographic distribution, a life-history summary, a habitat-use summary, and conservation comments. The book is a critical resource for biologists, naturalists, management and conservation officers, anglers, and members of the public who are concerned about our natural heritage. Foreword by Joseph S. Nelson.

Download or read book Historical Changes in Large River Fish Assemblages of the Americas written by John N. Rinne and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 636 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dramatic changes have occurred in the functioning of larger rivers because of social values and policies, land use, inchannel causes, and alien species. These changes have resulted in the reduction in range and abundance of many native fish species. This book describes the historical changes observed in the fish assemblages of 27 large rivers in North, Central, and South America. A synthesizing chapter highlights common and distinct patterns among the rivers and their stressors. The book focuses on entire fish assemblages, including the many species that do not enter fisheries. It will be of interest to both fishery biologists and aquatic ecologists who are concerned with the status and trends in biodiversity and biointegrity. Contains historical information as well as new research and monitoring results, including research on metapopulations, genetics, and life history strategies.
