Observed reductions in spawning and rearing habitat availability for Cowichan lamprey (Entosphenus macrostomus) during drought conditions / by J. Wade, N. Lovestrom and S. MacConnachie.: Fs97-13/1269E-PDF

"Cowichan (Vancouver) Lamprey (Entosphenus macrostomus) is listed as Threatened on Schedule 1 of the Canadian Species at Risk Act (SARA). It is a freshwater parasitic fish endemic only to the Cowichan watershed on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The species has been found in Cowichan, Bear and Mesachie lakes and the lower parts of some tributaries to these lakes. The purpose of this study was to document the habitat availability in the nearshore area of three locations previously identified as either likely spawning habitat or ammocoete rearing habitat for Cowichan Lamprey in the summer drought conditions”--Introd., p. [1].
