The following list of known freshwater fish species, subspecies, and hybrids occurring in the U.S. state of Idaho is taken from Wydoski and Whitney (2003). Some scientific names have been updated or corrected. Asterisks denote introduced fishes. The list includes several anadromous species.
This is an incomplete list of the species of mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and fish found in the Sawtooth National Recreation Area in central Idaho. [1] Gray wolves were reintroduced to central Idaho in the 1990s while grizzly bears have been extirpated from the area, and plans to reintroduce them have been abandoned.
The McCloud River redband trout is found in small tributaries of the McCloud River and Pit River which are tributaries of California's Sacramento River. The Great Basin redband trout is found in seven distinct basins in southeastern Oregon, and parts of California and Nevada on the periphery of the Great Basin. [1] Redband trout have often been ...
The Columbia River redband trout, [1] the inland redband trout [2] or the interior redband trout [1] (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) is one of three redband trout subspecies of the rainbow trout in the family Salmonidae. [3] It is native in the Columbia River and its tributaries in Idaho, Oregon, Washington and Montana.
Historically, cutthroat trout was considered one species (Oncorhynchus clarkii).[2] [9] However, recent genetic, taxonomic, and geologic [10] evidence has determined that cutthroat trout should be divided into four species, with each (except for the coastal cutthroat) having multiple subspecies corresponding to the evolutionary lineages [11] found within major river basins.
Clearwater-Eastern Cascade cutthroat trout: Salmon River cutthroat trout O. lewisi ssp. Native to the Salmon River watershed in central Idaho. [4] [26] [29] Salmon River cutthroat trout: John Day cutthroat trout O. lewisi ssp. Native to about 220 miles (355 km) of 41 tributaries to the John Day River watershed in Oregon.
Native only to a few U.S. states, their original range was upstream of Shoshone Falls on the Snake River and tributaries in Wyoming, also across the Continental Divide in Yellowstone Lake and in the Yellowstone River as well as its tributaries downstream to the Tongue River in Montana. [2] The species is also found in Idaho, Utah and Nevada. [3]
Analysis by Robert Benhke, Eric Wagner, and Steve Culver proved the species to be a presumably introduced population of Sunapee trout. Later research found reports of a trout egg trade between the Idaho and the New Hampshire Fish and Game departments. [4] They are reportedly found in two Idaho bodies of water, Alice and Sawtooth Lakes.
