Thomas Fisheries Program Coordinator 2011 (Third edition, 2021) Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources Division of Fisheries Cover paintings by Rick Hill • Publication design by Adrienne Yancy Preface entucky is home to a total of 245 native fish species with an additional 24 that have been introduced either intentionally (i.e., for sport) or accidentally. Within Kthe United States, Kentucky’s native freshwater fish diversity is exceeded only by Alabama and Tennessee. This high diversity of native fishes corresponds to an abun- dance of water bodies and wide variety of aquatic habitats across the state – from swift upland streams to large sluggish rivers, oxbow lakes, and wetlands. Approximately 25 species are most frequently caught by anglers either for sport or food. Many of these species occur in streams and rivers statewide, while several are routinely stocked in public and private water bodies across the state, especially ponds and reservoirs. The largest proportion of Kentucky’s fish fauna (80%) includes darters, minnows, suckers, madtoms, smaller sunfishes, and other groups (e.g., lam- preys) that are rarely seen by most people.

  • Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Speckled Dace Rhinichthys Osculus, a Widely Distributed Cyprinid Minnow of Western North America
    Bock. Published in Mitochondrial DNA Part A> DNA Mapping, Sequencing, and Analysis, 27(6), Oct. 21, 2015: 4416-4418 MITOGENOME ANNOUNCEMENT Complete mitochondrial genome of the speckled dace Rhinichthys osculus, a widely distributed cyprinid minnow of western North America Samantha L. Bock, Morgan M. Malley, and Sean C. Lema Department of Biological Sciences, Center for Coastal Marine Sciences, California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, CA, USA Abstract Keywords The speckled dace Rhinichthys osculus (order Cypriniformes), also known as the carpita pinta, is Cyprinidae, Cypriniformes, Leuciscinae, a small cyprinid minnow native to western North America. Here, we report the sequencing of mitogenome, mtDNA the full mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of R. osculus from a male fish collected from the Amargosa River Canyon in eastern California, USA. The assembled mitogenome is 16 658 base pair (bp) nucleotides, and encodes 13 protein-coding genes, and includes both a 12S and a 16S rRNA, 22 tRNAs, and a 985 bp D-loop control region. Mitogenome synteny reflects that of other Ostariophysian fishes with the majority of genes and RNAs encoded on the heavy strand (H-strand) except nd6, tRNA-Gln, tRNA-Ala, tRNA-Asn, tRNA-Cys, tRNA-Tyr, tRNA-Ser, tRNA-Glu, and tRNA - Pro. The availability of this R. osculus mitochondrial genome – the first complete mitogenome within the lineage of Rhinichthys riffle daces – provides a foundation for resolving evolutionary relationships among morphologically differentiated populations of R. osculus. The speckled dace Rhinichthys osculus (Girard, 1856) is a small and Tissue Kit; Qiagen, Valencia, CA) and amplified (GoTaq® fish within the Leuciscinae subfamily of true minnows Long PCR Master Mix, Promega Corp., Madison, WI) using (Cyprinidae, Cypriniformes).

  • Effect of Light on Juvenile Walleye Pollock Shoaling and Their Interaction with Predators
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 167: 215-226, 1998 Published June 18 Mar Ecol Prog Ser l Effect of light on juvenile walleye pollock shoaling and their interaction with predators Clifford H. Ryer*, Bori L. Olla Fisheries Behavioral Ecology Group, Alaska Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, Hatfield Marine Science Center, Newport, Oregon 97365, USA ABSTRACT: Research was undertaken to examine the influence of light lntenslty on the shoaling behavior, activity and anti-predator behavior of juvenlle walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramrna. Under a 12 h light/l2 h dark photoperiod, juveniles displayed a diurnal shoaling and activity pattern, characterized by fish swimming in cohesive groups during the day, with a cessation of shoaling and decreased swlmmlng speeds at nlght. Prior studies of school~ngfishes have demonstrated distinct light thresholds below which school~ngabruptly ceases. To see if this threshold effect occurs in a predomi- nantly shoaling species, like juvenile walleye pollock, another experiment was undertaken in which illumination was lourered by orders of magnitude, glrrlng fish 20 mln to adapt to each light intensity Juvenlle walleye pollock were not characterized by a d~stinctlight threshold for shoaling; groups grad- ually dispersed as light levels decreased and gradually recoalesced as light levels increased. At light levels below 2.8 X 10.~pE SS' m-" juvenile walleye pollock were so dispersed as to no longer constitute a shoal. Exposure to simulated predation risk had differing effects upon fish behavior under light and dark cond~tionsBrief exposure to a mndc! prerlst~r:E !he .'ark c;i;ssd fish to ~WIIIIidsier, ior 5 or 6 min, than fish which had been similarly startled In the light.

Scandinavia and Russia northernmost extremity, Rhône drainage. Recorded from upper and middle Volga and Ural drainages, Lake Balkhash 1 (Kazakhstan) and upper Syr-Darya drainage (Aral basin), but else identifications need verification.” From GISD (2019): “Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia And Herzegovina, Bulgaria, China, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Kazakhstan, Korea, Democratic People's Republic Of Korea, Republic Of Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, The Former Yugoslav Republic Of Moldova, Republic Of Mongolia, Montenegro, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom.” In addition to the above locations, Freyhof and Kottelat (2008) lists Andorra and Austria as locations where Phoxinus phoxinus is native. CABI (2019) lists Phoxinus phoxinus as localized in Egypt. Status in the United States No records of introductions of Phoxinus phoxinus in the United States were found.

The most crappie minnow, rosy-red minnow (red color notable of these was a difference in how complete morph variant) the lateral line appeared and resulted in northern, southern, and eastern subspecies. Due to the nature of the variations and the high level of Identification Key variability, it is accepted today that P. promelas is no longer broken into subspecies.
