Recovery strategy for the speckled dace (Rhinichthys osculus) in Canada .: En3-4/245-2016E-PDF

"The Speckled Dace (Rhinichthys osculus) is a small freshwater minnow. Recent field studies have confirmed a large and apparently robust population of Speckled Dace throughout its Canadian range, far in excess of previous estimates made prior to being listed as Endangered in Schedule 1 of the Species at Risk Act (SARA). This recovery strategy identifies the population and distribution objective for Speckled Dace as: maintain current distribution and abundance within natural fluctuations. As well, broad strategies and approaches necessary for the recovery of Speckled Dace are provided. Critical habitat for the Speckled Dace is identified to the extent possible using the best available information"--Executive summary, p. iii.
