The Native Fish Fauna of Major Drainages East of The
THE NATIVE FISH FAUNA OF MAJOR DRAINAGES EAST OF THE CONTINENTAL DIVIDE IN NEW MEXICO A Thesis Presented to the Graduate Faculty of Biology Eastern New Mexico University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements fdr -the7Degree: Master of Science in Biology by Michael D. Hatch December 1984 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Introduction Study Area Procedures Results and Discussion Summary Acknowledgements Literature Cited Appendices Abstract INTRODUCTION r (t. The earliest impression of New Mexico's native fish fauna =Ems during the 1850's from naturalists attached to various government survey parties. Without the collections from these and other early surveys, the record of the native fish fauna would be severely deficient because, since that time, some 1 4 native species - or subspecies of fish have become extirpated and the ranges of an additionial 22 native species or subspecies have become severly re- stricted. Since the late Miocene, physiographical changes of drainages have linked New Mexico, to varying degrees, with contemporary ichthyofaunal elements or their progenitors from the Rocky Mountains, the Great Plains, the Chihuahuan Desert, the Mexican Plateau, the Sonoran Desert and the Great Basin. Immigra- tion from these areas contributed to the diversity of the state's native ichthyofauna. Over the millinea, the fate of these fishes waxed and waned in ell 4, response to the changing physical and _chenaca-l-conditions of the surrounding environment. Ultimately, one of the most diverse fish faunas of any of the interior southwestern states developed. Fourteen families comprising 67 species of fish are believed to have occupied New Mexico's waters historically, with strikingly different faunas evolving east and west of the Continental Divide.

Appendix I. 2015 Stocking Schedule
Welcome to the Fisheries of New Mexico! New Mexico offers abundant angling opportunities for the public to enjoy. We have isolated mountain lakes, montane meadow streams, the rugged Rio Grande Gorge, large reservoirs with monster striped bass or lake trout, and the list goes on and on. New Mexico also supports a unique and diverse native fish fauna. Despite this diversity and the Department’s long contributions to wildlife conservation efforts, the Department has never developed a comprehensive plan which describes overarching vision for contemporary and future management for all fisheries in the state. Considering the modern challenges and conflicts within natural resource management, the Department recognized a clear need to better communicate with anglers, resource users, and the general public how we plan to manage a particular lake, stream, or river. I believe this Statewide Fisheries Management Plan does just that. While this is the first ever plan of such comprehensive scope in New Mexico, it really is a summary of the conventional knowledge, vision, and decades of work by the Department and its partners who work to conserve our aquatic resources. Our collective knowledge and vision is now readily available to all interested individuals. By being available to the general public, this document will help to explain the “why” behind our activities. I hope you find it useful to join the Department in conserving New Mexico’s wildlife for future generations. -Alexandra Sandoval, Director NMDGF Fisheries Management Plan 2015 Page 1 Table of Contents Introduction and Purpose of Plan ................................................................................................... 6 Scope and Organization of Plan ...................................................................................................... 7 Overview of NMDGF Fisheries Program ........................................................................................

Bonito Watershed Project
BONITO WATERSHED PROJECT HYDROLOGY AND SOILS SPECIALIST REPORT Smokey Bear Ranger District, Lincoln National Forest Lincoln County, New Mexico Mike McConnell, Forest Hydrologist Bob Dancker, Soils Scientist May 2009 INTRODUCTION This report is an analysis of existing conditions and effects related to hydrology and soils in the major portion of the Upper Rio Bonito watershed and parts of Middle Rio Bonito and Magado watersheds. This report will summarize information about soils and hydrologic conditions along with with effects analysis on alternatives as they relate to the planned upcoming Bonito Watershed Project on the Lincoln National. The Bonito Watershed Project is a planned hazardous fuels reduction project covering 28,488 acres across three 6th level Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) watersheds, the Upper Rio Bonito (HUC #130600080201), Middle Rio Bonito (#130600080207) and Magado Canyon (#130600080202). These smaller watersheds are part of the larger 5th level HUC Rio Bonito watershed (189,455 acres). The 28,488 acre (44.5 mi2) Bonito project area lies in the upper portion of the Rio Bonito watershed with the majority of the project above Lake Bonito or the Upper Rio Bonito watershed which includes the 16,029 acres of the White Mountain Wilderness. Mechanized travel is not allowed in the White Mountain Wilderness and there are no roads there. Roads in the non-wilderness area are primarily the Class 1, 2 and 3 roads. The majority of the Bonito project lies within the Upper Rio Bonito watershed (25,847 acres or 40.39 mi2) where 82 percent of it (21,254 acres or 33.2 mi2) feeds into Bonito Lake.

RARE and ENDANGERED SPECIES; the RIO GRANDE TROUT (Seim° Clarkii Virrinalis)
RARE AND ENDANGERED SPECIES; THE RIO GRANDE TROUT (Seim° clarkii virRinalis) Robert Behnke Colorado Cooperative Fishery Unit Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado January, 1967 Introduction The cutthroat trout native to the Rio Grande River basin, is listed as endangered by the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife. So little is known about this trout regarding original distribution, taxonomy, or its present status, that perhaps the category "status unknown" would be more appropriate. Evermann and Kendall (1895) reviewed the scattered bits of information on the Rio Grande trout and concluded; "The distribution of the trout of the Rio Grande basin furnishes very interesting and proper subject for investigation." No such investigation has yet been attempted. Virtually the whole taxonomic foundation of this trout found in pre- sent day keys and check lists can be traced to the comments of Jordan (1891), who examined two specimens from the Rio Grande at Del Norte, Colorado, in 1889. The original distribution, characters distinguishing it from other cutthroat trout, and variability of populations is not known. Drastic en- vironment changes wrought by the use and misuse of water; the introduction of exotic fish species, particularly rainbow trout and other subspecies of cutthroat trout which hybridize with the native trout, make an evalua- tion of the present status of the Rio Grande trout 4 difficult task. Relatively few specimens of native Rio Grande trout were collected and permanently preserved in museum collections, and these were from a rather -2- restricted geographical area. Thus, there is little available material representing the original Rio Grande trout for comparative taxonomic studies.

Acknowledgments
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I express my appreciation to Public Lands Interpretive Association (PLIA) for publishing this guide. It provides, for the first time, a comprehensive publication detailing all the usable official trails on Lincoln National Forest. Special appreciation is due Stephen G. Maurer, PLIA's Publications Director, for his continued encouragement. This guide would not have been possible without the help of many individuals. Foremost, I thank my wife, Joanne, who gave unselfishly of her time to accompany me while developing field data. She saved untold hours and miles of hiking by delivering me to trailheads, then driving countless miles, often on very rough roads, to pick me up at my destination where she waited, sometimes hours, for my arrival. Friends who accompanied me on some of those early hikes to obtain information were Tracy Penney, John Mangimeli, and Cathy Luna. Personnel from the Lincoln’s Recreation Division determined which trails would be featured. Later they reviewed the manuscript and provided many helpful comments. Those instrumental in helping substantially with the First Edition, including non-forest employees, were Linda Barker, John Brown, Richard Carlson, Linda Cole, Erin Connelly, Peg Crim, Jean Fulton, Len Hendzel, Renee Galeano-Popp, Merle Glenn, Douglas Holcomb, Mickey Mauter, Tim Meyer, Norma Palomino, Danney Salas, Sam Tobias, and Ransom Turner. For the Second Edition, I wish to especially thank Brad Orr, Recreation Specialist for Sacramento Ranger District, who has taken a profound interest in the trails of his district. He accompanied me on numerous hikes, and as a result, 15 additional trails and changes to others were recommended for inclusion.

The activities below are divided into eight main categories identified in the range-wide agreement. The following is a brief summary of those activities that occurred in 2013. Population Inventory In 2013, 58 waters (87 individual surveys) were inventoried within the historic range of RGCT. The purpose of the inventories was to survey potentially occupied RGCT waters (11), monitor known populations (13), assess the genetic status of RGCT populations (17 AFLP tests; 10 ND2 tests), collect disease information (4), and collect habitat information within the historic range (3). Two new RGCT populations were identified in Colorado. Population Maintenance Sympatric non-native fish were mechanically removed from five miles of habitat in the Rio Cebolla. A culvert barrier was also installed on Beaver Creek and funds were secured to replace 2 culverts on East Pass Creek. STATE OF COLORADO John W.

This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1964 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks. Copyright Information Publications of the New Mexico Geological Society, printed and electronic, are protected by the copyright laws of the United States.
