First data on the movements of Iberochondrostoma almacai (Coelho, Mesquita & Collares-Pereira, 2005) out of dryseason pools in a Mediterranean stream
Movement out of dry-season refugia may be critical to fish persistence in temporary streams, though it remains poorly understood. Here we quantify the movements by the Southwestern archedmouth nase out of dry-season pools in a mediterranean stream, using a mark-recapture design. Although some nase w...

| Sumario: | Movement out of dry-season refugia may be critical to fish persistence in temporary streams, though it remains poorly understood. Here we quantify the movements by the Southwestern archedmouth nase out of dry-season pools in a mediterranean stream, using a mark-recapture design. Although some nase were sedentary, some individuals moving out of dry-season pools displaced more than 200m, both upstream and downstream, and into persistent and ephemeral sites. This suggests that nase may redistribute after flow resumption and colonize sites that were previously dry. |
