Fish of the Great Lakes Region — in the Eastern United States and Eastern Canada regions of North America. Fish species that are native to the Great Lakes and their direct tributaries . For non-native and/or invasive species of fish, see: Category: Invasive animal species in North America .
This species was an important component of the cisco (chub) fishery in the Great Lakes. Competition and predation from rainbow smelt ( Osmerus mordax ) and alewife ( Alosa pseudoharengus ), two introduced exotic fish species, have had a negative impact on shortjaw cisco populations.
The number of species and definition of species limits in North American ciscoes is a matter of debate. Accordingly, Coregonus artedi may refer either in a narrow sense to one of the several types of cisco found e.g. in the Great Lakes, or in a broad sense to the complex of all ciscoes in continental North American lakes, Coregonus artedi sensu ...
The Shortnose Cisco was once abundant on the Great Lakes, but overfishing and invasive species such as sea lamprey, zebra and quagga mussels, alewives and round gobies dwindled the fish's numbers ...
Neanderthals (/ n i ˈ æ n d ər ˌ t ɑː l, n eɪ-,-ˌ θ ɑː l / nee-AN-də(r)-TAHL, nay-, - THAHL; [7] Homo neanderthalensis or H. sapiens neanderthalensis) are an extinct group of archaic humans (generally regarded as a distinct species, though some regard it as a subspecies of Homo sapiens) who lived in Eurasia until about 40,000 ...
Ciscoes have been exploited in commercial fisheries, particularly in the Laurentian Great Lakes where the deepwater forms were the basis of the so-called chub fishery. The chub fishery had nothing to do with the various cyprinid fish species known as chubs but was exclusively based on the various species of ciscoes.
In a new study, scientists created a top 10 list of the worst invasive species in the Great Lakes. The team of scientists from Michigan Sea Grant, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric ...
A Neanderthal was buried 75,000 years ago, and experts painstakingly pieced together what she looked like. The striking recreation is featured in a new Netflix documentary, “Secrets of the ...
