Within the Sal- phylogeography; monidae, these species complexes have been well studied, particularly population genetics; within the Coregonus clupeaformis–C. laveratus (lake and European whitefish, sympatric populations. respectively) group, but the phenomenon has been less well documented in the other whitefish genera, Prosopium and Stenodus. Here, we examined the morphology, feeding biology and genetic structure of three putative forms of the pygmy whitefish, Prosopium coulterii (Eigenmann & Eigenmann, 1892), first reported from Chignik Lake, south-western Alaska, over 40 years ago. Field collections and morphological analyses resolved a shal- low water (< 5 m depth) low gill raker count form (< 15 first arch gill rakers), a deepwater (> 30 m), low gill raker form and a deepwater, high gill raker count (> 15 gill rakers) form. The two low gill raker count forms fed almost exclusively on benthic invertebrates (mostly chironomids), while the deepwater, high gill raker count form fed almost exclusively on zooplank- ton; differences in diet were also reflected in differences both in d13C and d15N stable isotopes.

    W E L C O M E T O U T A H U T A H Utah's iconic national parks, world- renowned skiing, strong growth patterns, economic opportunities and quality of education are just a few of the reasons many are making the move to the Beehive State. As one of the nation's fastest growing areas, Salt Lake City and surrounding communities continue to grow and diversify, making it a great place for singles, professionals, families and retirees to call home. ECONOMICOUTLOOK For the past 12 years, an index of economic competitiveness titled “Rich States, Poor States,” published by the American Legislative Exchange Council has ranked Utah the top performer every year. ECONOMIC COMPETITIVENESS INDEX Wages are rising briskly, job growth has ranked second in the nation for the last 10 years and the state’s population growth ranks in the top three. Because Utah's economy is the fastest growing in the nation - upward mobility, better pay and more opportunity is available. ECONOMICDASHBOARD Utah's location, cost of doing business, leadership, and an educated workforce, all play a part in why Utah is one of the best states in the USA for business.

  • Endangered Species
    FEATURE: ENDANGERED SPECIES Conservation Status of Imperiled North American Freshwater and Diadromous Fishes ABSTRACT: This is the third compilation of imperiled (i.e., endangered, threatened, vulnerable) plus extinct freshwater and diadromous fishes of North America prepared by the American Fisheries Society’s Endangered Species Committee. Since the last revision in 1989, imperilment of inland fishes has increased substantially. This list includes 700 extant taxa representing 133 genera and 36 families, a 92% increase over the 364 listed in 1989. The increase reflects the addition of distinct populations, previously non-imperiled fishes, and recently described or discovered taxa. Approximately 39% of described fish species of the continent are imperiled. There are 230 vulnerable, 190 threatened, and 280 endangered extant taxa, and 61 taxa presumed extinct or extirpated from nature. Of those that were imperiled in 1989, most (89%) are the same or worse in conservation status; only 6% have improved in status, and 5% were delisted for various reasons. Habitat degradation and nonindigenous species are the main threats to at-risk fishes, many of which are restricted to small ranges. Documenting the diversity and status of rare fishes is a critical step in identifying and implementing appropriate actions necessary for their protection and management. Howard L.

  • A History of Beaver County, Utah Centennial County History Series
    A HISTORY OF 'Beaver County Martha Sonntag Bradley UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF 'Beaver County Martha Sonntag Bradley The settlement of Beaver County began in February 1856 when fifteen families from Parowan moved by wagon thirty miles north to Beaver Valley. The county was created by the Utah legislature on 31 January 1856, a week before the Parowan group set out to make their new home. However, centuries before, prehistoric peoples lived in the area, obtaining obsidian for arrow and spear points from the Mineral Mountains. Later, the area became home to Paiute Indians. Franciscan Friars Dominguez and Escalante passed through the area in October 1776. The Mormon settlement of Beaver devel­ oped at the foot of the Tushar Mountains. In 1859 the community of Minersville was es­ tablished, and residents farmed, raised live­ stock, and mined the lead deposits there. In the last quarter of the nineteenth century the Mineral Mountains and other locations in the county saw extensive mining develop­ ment, particularly in the towns of Frisco and Newhouse. Mining activities were given a boost with the completion of the Utah South­ ern Railroad to Milford in 1880. The birth­ place of both famous western outlaw Butch Cassidy and inventor of television Philo T. Farnsworth, Beaver County is rich in history, historic buildings, and mineral treasures.

  • Bear Lake Whitefish Prosopium Abyssicola
    Bear Lake Whitefish Prosopium abyssicola Actinopterygii — Salmoniformes — Salmonidae CONSERVATION STATUS / CLASSIFICATION Rangewide: Critically imperiled (G1) Statewide: Critically imperiled (S1) ESA: No status USFS: Region 1: No status; Region 4: No status BLM: Rangewide/Globally imperiled (Type 2) IDFG: Game fish BASIS FOR INCLUSION Endemic to Bear Lake. TAXONOMY The Bear Lake whitefish is 1 of 3 sympatric members of the genus Prosopium. No subspecies has been proposed. DISTRIBUTION AND ABUNDANCE This species is endemic to Bear Lake. POPULATION TREND Monitoring for >20 years indicates the population is stable (Nielson and Tolentino 2002). HABITAT AND ECOLOGY The Bear Lake whitefish typically occurs in the benthic zone at water depths greater than 40 m (130 ft). Spawning occurs in mid–February to mid–March in shallow, rocky areas. Ostracods comprise the majority of the diet, but other invertebrates found on the lake bottom may be consumed. ISSUES The lowering of lake levels due to natural events and anthropogenic actions could limit spawning and rearing habitat. Increasing human development around the lake could lead to lowering of water quality due to waste water discharges. Legal and illegal introductions of piscivorous fish could affect populations by increased predation rate. RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Continue programs that (1) monitor the population status and trend; (2) evaluate the relationship between water quality and level and fish populations; (3) stock sterile triploid lake trout; and (4) removal of illegally introduced non–native fish (e.g., walleye) in conjuction with adjacent states. Bear Lake Whitefish Prosopium abyssicola Ecological Section Species Range 10 August 2005 Fish information is from Idaho Fish and Wildlife 0 20 40 80 Kilometers Information System, Idaho Deptartment of Fish and Game and displayed at the 6th code hydrologic unit.
