104:217-231. <br />- Tabulates general locality information for upper basin <br />_ fishes collected in 1960s-70s. At that time, G. elegans was <br />=_- considered rare in the Yampa-Green rivers area, Desolation <br />Canyon, and lower Green River. A tabulation of numbers <br />--- collected over that period shows a drastic decline. <br />Humpback chubs were recorded from the first and second of <br />these localities and the Glen Canyon area. Roundtail chubs <br />Y= were abundant in upper Green-Yampa area but decreased in <br />downstream areas; they were abundant in all Colorado River <br />locales.from Moab, Utah upstream to and into the Gunnison <br />River. Also noted populations in tributaries, including the <br />Little Snake, Dolores, Price, White and Duchesne rivers. <br />Holden, P.B., and W.L. Minckley. 1980. Gila cvpha; p. 165, in: <br />D.S.
