Latitude-Longitude 34.3871778°N, 118.9530111°W Bottom Type algae over cobbles and sand
Acc. Number 2018-X:19 Specimen Remarks m, f, juveniles. Fixed in 10% buffered (dolomite) formalin ~1 month.
Collecting Event Remarks Water temp. = 18 C. This is a 24 m long pool with a small inflow riffle. The level of the pool apparently had declined rapidly recently as there was much dead algae higher on bank (to 50 cm above present level) and lower banks were covered with live green filamentous algae to a height of about 35 cm. Decline in water level had caused a decrease in pool volume of 65-70% and surface area by about 50% since it stopped flowing into the next pool downstream. In a separate bottle, dead sticklebacks which were common, more collected for comparison to live sample. Numerous fish infected with Schistocephalus or ectoparasites. A green heron was seen earlier in flight near here and it attempted to return. One cobble had a large recent bird feces. Belostomatid also common. Later a dead stickleback with parallel lines on it (beak mark?) found. This pool is 100% shaded by willows until almost noon. Also caught Gila orcutti, Pimephales promelas, Gambusia affinis, and Catostomus santaanae.

Collecting Event Remarks Water temp. = 20.5 C. This is a larger pool immediately upstream of the pool where previous dead sample (MAB77-82) was made. A little trickle of water enters this pool upstream and this pool used to flow into the pool where the previous dead sample was made. It does not do so now. The pool at the surface is almost completely covered with filamentous algae. Dead sticklebacks were fairly abundant but other species abundant in the pool (especially Gambusia) were not found dead. Length of this pool: 65 m. Sticklebacks unusually abundant, many thrown back. Also caught Gila orcutti, Catostomus santaanae, and Pimephales promelas.

Also caught Gila orcutti, Pimephales promelas, Gambusia affinis, and Catostomus santaanae.
