| Acc. Number | 2018-X:19 | Specimen Remarks | m, f, juveniles. Fixed in 10% buffered (dolomite) formalin ~1 month. | ||||
| Collecting Event Remarks | Water temp. = 22 C. All 5 scorable fish were low plated. 4 fish came from pool from which data above is presented, all were low plated fish. 7 fish came from a small puddle just upstream <1 cm deep and about 25 cm in diameter. This puddle was drying. 1 fish from this puddle was countable and it was low morph. A belostomatid was seen with a captured water strider, but I did not see it get captured. Downstream of here is a 3 m falls and access is poor in this area. Thus it is very unlikely that sticklebacks are introduced. | ||||||
