Report on the progress of the management plan implementation for the banded killifish (Fundulus diaphanus), Newfoundland population, in Canada for the period of 2011-2016 .: En3-5/12-1-2016E-PDF
"The Newfoundland population of Banded Killifish (Fundulus diaphanus) was listed as a species of special concern under the Species at Risk Act (SARA) in 2005. The Management Plan for the Banded Killifish (Fundulus diaphanus), Newfoundland population, in Canada was finalized and published on the Species at Risk Public Registry in 2011. The main threats identified for the Banded Killifish include sedimentation and altered water flows resulting from land use activities (e.g., forest harvesting, road construction/maintenance). The goal of the Banded Killifish Management Plan is to maintain existing Banded Killifish population levels and distribution, and protect habitat within watersheds in which this species is found. This goal is supported by four objectives: 1) conduct surveys and population monitoring, 2) develop site-specific best management practices to protect habitat, 3) reduce bycatch mortality in the American Eel fishery, and 4) increase-public awareness and stewardship"--Executive summary.
