40 Analyzes the sport fishery potential of all tributaries to the Little Snake River in Wyoming. Many of these streams contain the Colorado River cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki pleuriticus). Also discusses the fish population, available habitat, food supply,~ water quality of each stream and offers management options for each stream. 232. Elliott, R. D., J. F. Hannaford, and R. W. Shaffer. 1973. Twelve basin investigation analysis of potential increases in streamflow resulting from modification of cold orographic clouds in selected river basins of the western United States. Natl. Tech. Inf. Serv., Springfield, Va. PB-232 132. 328 pp. CLOUD SEEDING, RIVER-Colorado, STREAMFLOW, WEATHER Presents the cloud seeding potential for increased streamflow from seven major river basins in the western United States, including the upper Colorado. Potential incremental streamflow was computed for the water years 1951-52 through 1970-71. 233. Ellis, M. M. 1914. Fishes of Colorado. Univ. Colo. (Boulder) Stud. 11(1): 1-135.

The squawfish occurs in Colorado only in the Grand,White, and Yampa Rivers and their tributaries. Because of its large size it is a valuable food fish. Humpback sucker is generally distributed throughout the Colorado River drainage in the large streams below the foothill region. Because of their large size, adult humpback suckers are often marketed with flannelmouth suckers. The humpback sucker was taken in considerable numbers by the Mohave Indians from the Colorado River near Fort Mohave. 235. Ellis, W. H. 1966.
