ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS <br />Many individuals have participated in ISMP since it began and their efforts are appreciated. Pat <br />Martinez (CDOW) and Miles Moretti (UDWR) played lead roles for their agencies during the first <br />years of ISMP. Principals among many biologists collecting ISMP data include Melissa Trammel and <br />Brant Gutermuth from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources; Doug Osmundson, Bob Burdick, and <br />Dale Ryden from the Fish and Wildlife Service; and Rich Valdez, Bill Masslich, and Bryan Cowdell <br />from BIO/WEST, Inc. Many seasonal employees of the three agencies also contributed to data <br />collection and analysis. Bob Muth, Darrel Snyder and students from the Larval Fish Laboratory <br />identified fish preserved during YOY Colorado syuawfish sampling. Bob Muth, Tim Modde, and <br />Bruce Haines provided comments on an earlier version of this report. Frank Pfeifer and Cheryl <br />Harris provided administrative support to the senior author. <br />Cover drawings of the endangered fishes by Doris Rust.
