LIST OF TABLES
1. Backwater sampling data sets 1.
2. Number of pond, lake and reservoir resources that are above and below the 6,500-feet
elevation contour in western Colorado.
3. Number of ponds and the associated floodplain positions for the primary study area
surrounding the Colorado and Gunnison rivers.
4. Known occurrence of native and nonnative fish species in the Colorado and Gunnison
River basins for 307 floodplain and upland ponds sampled from 1997-2001 below 6,500-
feet, and within the 100-year and 50-year floodplains below that elevation. Also listed is
the occurrence of fishes in eight reservoirs on tributaries to these rivers sampled from
1997-2001.
5. Ponds reclaimed as part ofnon-native fish control efforts along the Colorado and
Gunnison rivers within or adjacent to critical habitat for endangered fishes (Martinez
2004).
6. Occurrence of nonnative fish species in the ISA showing number of ponds that were
sampled that contained nonnative fish species and the number that were controlled that
contained those nonnative fish species.
7. Summary of requests sent and received for voluntary submission of records for private
sector stocking of nonnative, nonsahnonid fishes in Colorado west of the Continental
Divide for the years 1998, 1999 and 2000.
8. Summary of individual nonnative, nonsalmonid fish species stocking events reported in
available stocking records. "Statewide" reflects importation permits with non-specific
fish destinations, "Inadequate" reflects stocking records that could not be assigned to a
location within one-square mile, and "Within one-square mile" denotes locations of a
stocking site with accuracy sufficient for spatial depiction and analyses.
9. Categories of nonnative fish stocking densities in private waters in western Colorado
' derived from numbers of individuals of each species reported on stocking permits issued
from 1997-2001.
' 10. Known fish species composition and stocking frequency from stocking records for
private waters in western Colorado 1997-2001.
t 11. Numbers of nonnative, nonsalmonid fish species stocked by the Colorado Division of
Wildlife stocking of nonnative, nonsalmonid fish species in ponds and reservoirs in
western Colorado, 1997-2001. BCR =black crappie, BLG = bluegill, CCF =channel
' catfish, TGC = triploid grass carp, LMB =largemouth bass, TGM =tiger muskie, WAL
= walleye.
