An extensive list of the freshwater fish found in California, including both native and introduced species. [1] ... Eagle Lake Rainbow Trout: Oncorhynchus mykiss ...
Before the introduction of non-native trout to the lake, these fish co-existed with the lake's population of coastal rainbow trout known as Beardslee trout. The cutthroat mostly used the lake's inlet stream Barnes Creek for spawning, while the rainbow trout used the Lyre River for spawning. However, in the early 1980s a small cutthroat ...
The hitch is closely related to the California roach (Hesperoleucus symmetricus complex), and these taxa can hybridize with each other. [7] Hitch are omnivores of the open water, eating a combination of filamentous algae, insects, and zooplankton. They can be found in lakes, sloughs, and slow-moving sections of rivers and streams.
Subsequent studies have found some degree of hybridization in virtually all populations of Paiute cutthroats, especially between 1930 and 1994 with non-native fish like the California golden trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss aguabonita) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii ssp.). In the early 1990s, the California Department of Fish and Game ...

While a native fish to the California Central Valley, the sucker fish can also be found in the state of Oregon. [4] Hopkirk's Endemism in Fishes of the Clear Lake region of Central California publication for University of California Publication in Zoology, explains sucker species morphological features such as scale density varies upon geographical distribution due to hydrographic patterns.
