Standard operating protocol for mark and recapture monitoring of Brook Floater in streams

This report prepared for the Brook Floater Working Group includes a protocol developed to estimate Brook Floater population status and trends and demographic rates that allow for comparisons among populations throughout its range. The protocol describes methods that can be used in a variety of habitats (e.g., small streams and large rivers), at sites with different population densities, and for a range of number of personnel with various levels of experience.
