Movement patterns of endangered Roanoke logperch (Percina rex)

Abstract: –  Using mark–recapture methods, we studied movements of endangered Roanoke logperch (Percina rex Jordan & Evermann), a benthic darter, at 12 riffle–run sites over a 9‐year‐long period in the Roanoke River, Virginia, USA. Our primary objective was to characterise movements among transects within sites, but we opportunistically recorded two between‐site movements as well. Our recapture rate was low (22 of 485 marked fish), but most recaptured fish exhibited movements between tagging and recapture, relocating ei… Show more

“…Third, George and Mayden's [74] genetic study indicated that the range fragmentation of P. rex was anthropogenic and recent in nature and that the species probably dispersed more widely in the past. These findings about the surprising mobility of P. rex have been corroborated by additional, more recent genetic and movement studies [57,65]. The 1990 BO and monitoring plan implicitly assumed that P. rex population dynamics were regulated at the site or reach scale, and did not anticipate watershed-scale metapopulation dynamics.…”

“…We monitored P. rex and their habitat primarily to estimate incidental take and assess population-level impacts, even though basic knowledge about population dynamics of the species was initially sparse and uncertainty about how observed take related to these dynamics was high. Even so, our long-term (19 years) monitoring enabled us to learn valuable lessons that advanced our knowledge of P. rex ecology and made management for the species more cost-effective [56][57][58].…”

“…Schlosser, 1991). Movement frequency seems to be higher than expected (Gowan et al, 1994;Smithson, Johnston, 1999;Crook, 2004;Roberts et al, 2008;Breen et al, 2009), and stream fish populations are not completely sedentary. There are also some intra-population behaviour differences in which some individuals are sedentary, some are mobile, and others alternate between both behaviours (Knaepkens et al, 2005).…”

“…Rodríguez, 2002;Petty, Grossman, 2004). Nonetheless, it also received several criticisms (Riley et al, 1992;Young, 1994;Gowan, Fausch, 1996;Roberts et al, 2008;Breen et al, 2009). Gowan et al (1994) found, for example, that streamdwelling fish can move long distances when conditions in their present foraging location become sub-optimal relative to conditions at other locations in the same reach.…”
