  • Sonora Sucker
    scientific name common name Catostomus insignis Sonora sucker Bison code 010520 ______________________________________________________________ Official status Endemism ________________________ State AZ: threatened Colorado River Basin _______________________ Status/threats Dams, diversions, groundwater pumping and introduced species Distribution The species is widespread and abundant in the Gila and Bill Williams river drainages in Arizona and the Gila and San Francisco drainages in southwestern New Mexico. The species is widespread and abundant in the Verde and Gila headwaters. Habitat Streams and rivers from 300 to 3000 m in elevation, primarily in pool habitats. Pool habitats over sand gravel substrates. Life history and ecology Can attain a size of 0.8 m and a weight of greater than 2.0 kg. Used as food by early, primitive human populations. Food habits vary with availability. In one stream, Aravaipa Creek, it is principally a carnivore, whereas elsewhere in pool habitats diet consists of plant debris, mud, and algae. Observed to "suck" cottonwood seeds at surface as is common for the common carp. Young often feed in large schools at stream margins on micro-crustaceans, protozoans and other animal and plant groups. Breeding Similar to most slim-bodied suckers, the species spawns in smaller streams over gravel substrates. Males darken in color and often display extreme tuberculation. Males &(usually 2) flank a single, larger female. Gametes are emitted with considerable to extreme substrate agitation and fall into gravel interstices. Cleaning of gravels occurs much as reported for salmonid species. Key Habitat Components: pools with sand-gravel substrates for adults and shallow, low velocity riffles and backwaters for young Breeding season Protracted, from as early as January to February at low elevations to as late as July.

  • Trip Report for Travel to Arizona the Week of January 23 , 2006
    Trip Report for Travel to Arizona the Week of January 23rd, 2006. William B. Reed, Senior Hydrologist, NOAA’s NWS Colorado Basin River Forecast Center Itinerary: Traveled to Tucson on Monday, January 23, 2006; and returned from Tucson to Salt Lake City on Friday January 27, 2006. During the week I was accompanied by Michael Schaffner, Service Hydrologist, Tucson. Mike prearranged field logistics (including the borrowing of survey equipment) that provided for a very productive and conducive trip. Monday night – Tucson Tuesday night – Tucson Wednesday night – Safford Thursday night – Safford Part of Tuesday, Mike and I were joined by Elise Moore, County Floodplain Manager, Pinal County Department of Public Works, P.O. Box 727, Florence, AZ 85232. Noon Creek. Photo by Mike Schaffner (January 2006). Purpose: To visit river forecast points, meet with hydrologic customers, evaluate flood hazards at locations removed from stream gages, and collect hydrologic data related to recent burn-area peak flows. The later will be included in a peer-review journal article that Bill and Mike are completing related to post-burn runoff. (See picture previous page: Bill Reed measuring depth of peak flow water surface with survey rod. A tape measure has been stretched across the channel to correspond to the water surface at time of peak flow. Noon Creek is a 3 square mile watershed in the Pinaleno Mountains of Graham County. Water encompassed a cross sectional area 110 feet wide and a minimum of 10.5 feet deep at the time of peak flow to yield a peak flow in excess of 2,500 cfs.) Accomplishments: Monday: Madera Canyon.

  • Gila Topminnow Revised Recovery Plan December 1998
    GILA TOPMINNOW, Poeciliopsis occidentalis occidentalis, REVISED RECOVERY PLAN (Original Approval: March 15, 1984) Prepared by David A. Weedman Arizona Game and Fish Department Phoenix, Arizona for Region 2 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Albuquerque, New Mexico December 1998 Approved: Regional Director, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Date: Gila Topminnow Revised Recovery Plan December 1998 DISCLAIMER Recovery plans delineate reasonable actions required to recover and protect the species. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) prepares the plans, sometimes with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State and Federal Agencies, and others. Objectives are attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Time and costs provided for individual tasks are estimates only, and not to be taken as actual or budgeted expenditures. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views nor official positions or approval of any persons or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the Service. They represent the official position of the Service only after they have been signed by the Regional Director or Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks. ii Gila Topminnow Revised Recovery Plan December 1998 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Original preparation of the revised Gila topminnow Recovery Plan (1994) was done by Francisco J. Abarca 1, Brian E. Bagley, Dean A. Hendrickson 1 and Jeffrey R. Simms 1. That document was modified to this current version and the work conducted by those individuals is greatly appreciated and now acknowledged.
