I.. Title of Proposal: Selenium Effects on Larval Razorback Sucker: Field Verification of
Laboratory Results.

)

II. Relationship to RIPRAP: This study will test predictions of equations that describe adverse
effects from exposure of larval razorback sucker to ambient levels of selenium in water
and food throughout the Colorado River Basin. The proposed research is an extension of
the ongoing study entitled "Assessment and Prediction of Effects of Selenium Exposure to
Larval Razorback Sucker". Other pertinent components of the RIPRAP include:
