Fish Traits: A Database of Ecological and Life-history Traits of Freshwater Fishes of the United States
TL;DR: A database of > 100 traits for 809 fish species found in freshwaters of the conterminous United States, including 37 native families and 145 native genera is compiled.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing water quality at large geographic scales: relations among land use, water physicochemistry, riparian condition, and fish community structure.
TL;DR: The universal importance of riparian zones to the maintenance and restoration of diverse fish communities in streams is suggested, including practices that regulate the delivery of nutrients, suspended sediments, and total dissolved solids into streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are the Smallest Organisms the Most Diverse
Kenneth P. Dial,John M. Marzluff +1 more
TL;DR: The C-S-R model of primary plant strategies-origins, implications and tests is compared to a functional description of vegetation and its range and adaptive significance in a local flora.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid allopatric speciation in logperch darters (Percidae: Percina).
Thomas J. Near,Michael F. Benard +1 more
TL;DR: The empirical observation of high diversification rates in logperches demonstrates that allopatric speciation can occur rapidly, and demonstrates that the geographic mode of speciation for a clade cannot be inferred from the diversification rate.

TL;DR: Comparison of the 1979 and 1989 list of rare North American fishes indicates that recovery efforts have been locally effective for some species, but are cleverer than was earlier believed.

Mouth and Body Form Relative to Feeding Ecology in the Fish Fauna of a Small Lake, Lake Opinicon, Ontario
Allen Keast,Deirdre Webb +1 more
TL;DR: In 14 cohabiting fish species in a small freshwater lake, mouth and body structures combine with food specializations and habitat preferences to greatly restrict interspecific competition within the fauna.
