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.
The cutthroat trout is the state fish of Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, while particular subspecies of cutthroat are the state fish of Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico and Utah.

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.
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.
While fine-spotted x rainbow trout crosses are observed in the South Fork of the Snake River in Idaho, they are infrequently encountered and appear to be hatchery hybrids. Conversely, Yellowstone x rainbow crosses are common; the " cutbows " of Yellowstone Park in the Lamar River drainage are natural hybrids.
The redband trout subspecies find their ideal habitat in clean, cool, relatively small and low gradient streams, but are capable of enduring higher water temperatures (75–80 °F; 24–27 °C) than other trout that may co-habit the same streams. As with other trout, they feed on insects, crustaceans and forage fish, depending on their size.
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.
