| Title | Density of fish and salamanders in relation to riparian canopy and physical habitat in streams of the northwestern United States |
| Creator | Hawkins, Charles P. Murphy, M. L. |
| Description | Relationships between density of fish and salamanders, riparian canopy, and physical habitat were investigated by studying 10 pairs of streams. Among vertebrate taxa, salmonids and sculpins were more abundant in streams without riparian shading than in shaded streams. Abundance of salamanders was not affected by canopy type. Densities of both salamanders and sculpins were correlated with substrate composition, whereas salmonid abundance was not or only weakly so. Salamanders were found only... |
