This information will be helpful towards my subtopics reasons for listing and conservation status, as it provides a neutral point of view using fact based evidence on the limited abundance and status of conservation on a state, national and international level. Furthermore, this source uses graphical evidence of different threat categories such as hydrological manipulation and exotic species, which can allow me to expand on my subtopic of threats.

This academic book chapter will be useful in the construction of my article as it provides sufficient factual information into the biology and feeding habits of the fish. It details how the fish reproduce on a gonadal cycle and the needed water temperature for spawning, to add to my subtopic reproduction.

It provides a sufficient amount of information to be used in my section’s distribution and habitat, threats and conservation status, as it elaborates on how water quality is a threat to its habitat and states the conservation practice in place to reduce this threat. It further offers facts regarding the decline in population and the restricted extent of occurrence which is useful for my section on reasons for listing.

This government report illustrates crucial and relevant information regarding my subtitles description, biology, reproduction and conservation. It illustrates facts regarding a built natural barrier to prevent trout (threat) from invading the fish’s habitat to further expand my conservation subtopic and how there are three stages of maturation in the fish to add to reproduction.

This book chapter is a highly credible source as it provides a detailed factual account on the fish species.
