A Study Of The Temperature Selection And Upper Lethal Temperature Responses For Two Species Of Sculpin,Cottus Cognatus And Cottus Confusus, In The Flathead River Basin Of Northwestern Montana

The temperature selection and upper lethal temperature for two species of sculpin in the Flathead River Basin of northwestern Montana were investigated. Comparisons were made between Cottus cognatus and Cottus confusus concerning these thermal parameters to examine the possible relationship between...
