FINAL-DECEMBER 1997 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The primary purpose of this study was to characterize habitat use of Rio Grande silvery minnow at two sites, Rio Rancho and Socorro, in the Middle Rio Grande, NM. Habitat use was determined through a series of measurements of depth, velocity and substrate taken in the area where fish were collected. Habitat availability was measured along permanent transects at each site. Rio Grande silvery minnow was relatively abundant at both sampling localities, but was more numerous and comprised a greater percentage of the total catch at Socorro than at Rio Rancho. Red shiner, western mosquitofish, flathead chub, fathead minnow, longnose dace and white sucker were present in moderate numbers at both sites, but the other 12 species collected during the study accounted for less than 5% of the total catch. Although the abundance of fish varied widely across time within sites, the majority of all fish were collected at the Socorro, NM site. The mesohabitats most commonly occupied by all size-classes of Rio Grande fishes were low water velocity habitats over small substrata.
