FOREWORD.
To understand and properly manage any species, a
basic knowledge of that species' ecology, biology, and
distribution is essential. This annotated bibliography
by Charles Haynes and Karen Hamilton represents .the
foundation of our understanding of Colorado fishes, past
and present.
Though this publication stands well enough on its
own merits, it was meant to precede- and provide a
foundation for a new Fishes in Colorado. The present two
books on fishes of Colorado (Beckman 1952, Everhart and
Seaman 1971) need updating and revision. Until a new
text on Colorado fishes is available, this bibliography,
along with recent Division of Wildlife publications by
Wiltzius (1985) and Woodling (1985) will give the
student, scientist, and naturalist a good springboard
into the pertinent literature.
