Iowa's Curious Record for Lake Chub
5 American Currents Vol. 41, No. 4 IOWA’S CURIOUS RECORD FOR LAKE CHUB (COUESIUS PLUMBEUS) John Olson Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Des Moines The Lake Chub Couesius( plumbeus) is a relatively large, slender-bodied minnow (Family: Cyprinidae) commonly reaching lengths of 4–5 inches and reaching a reported maximum of nearly 9 inches (Figure 1). There is usually a slender barbel near the tip of the maxillary. The Lake Chub is dark olive dorsally and is dusky white ventrally with a dark lateral band extending from the base of the caudal fin to the snout. Although superficially resembling the Creek Chub (Semotilus atromaculatus), the Lake Chub lacks the Figure 1. Lake Chub (Couesius plumbeus).

Driftless Area - Wikipedia Visited 02/19/2020
2/19/2020 Driftless Area - Wikipedia Visited 02/19/2020 Driftless Area The Driftless Area is a region in southwestern Wisconsin, southeastern Minnesota, northeastern Iowa, and the extreme northwestern corner of Illinois, of the American Midwest. The region escaped the flattening effects of glaciation during the last ice age and is consequently characterized by steep, forested ridges, deeply carved river valleys, and karst geology characterized by spring-fed waterfalls and cold-water trout streams. Ecologically, the Driftless Area's flora and fauna are more closely related to those of the Great Lakes region and New England than those of the broader Midwest and central Plains regions. Colloquially, the term includes the incised Paleozoic Plateau of southeastern Minnesota and northeastern Relief map showing primarily the [1] Iowa.

IOWA CONSERVATION COMMISSION 300.- 4TH ST R EET DES MOINES, IOWA 50319 - A NOTE TO CANOEISTS - Canoeing is a challenge-a challenge to the canoeist's ability to handle his craft, but more important a challenge to the canoeist to use a stream or river and leave the waterway in the condition he found it. The majority of the trips in this booklet are on streams and rivers classed as non-meandered waterways. The stream bed and all adjacent lands to these waterwa s are the property of the landowner through whose land the water flows. Appreciate the fact that you are ag le to use the waterways. Respect the landowner and his roperty. Fences may inconvenience you at times but remember, the landowner is required by law to construct a &nce accross a non-meandered stream to keep livestock within his property lines. Try your utmost to cooperate with landowners. Whenever ossible, ask permission if you know you will have to portage or cross fences enroute. Obtaining permission is dou\ ly important if you plan to picnic or camp. On meandered waterways, all of the stream bed is owned by the state. The lands adjacent to the water may be state owned, county owned or privately owned. But no matter who owns the land don these meandered waterways, you, as a canoeist, are obligated to respect the property and leave it in the con 8!ition you found it. DO NOT BE A LITTERBUG! MEANDERED RIVERS The following is a list of meandered rivers and description of the upper limits of the meandered line: 1.
