Coastal and mountain streams of Arctic, Pacific, and Missouri River drainages from extreme southern Yukon in Canada to headwaters of Columbia River drainage in northern Nevada, USA, and McCloud River drainage in northern California, USA.

Length at first maturity / Size / Peso / Age

Maturity: L_m 72.0, range 58 - 86 cm
Max length : 103 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 40637); common length : 62.5 cm TL maschio/sesso non determinato; (Ref. 12193); peso massimo pubblicato: 14.5 kg (Ref. 4699)

Occurs in deep pools of large cold rivers and lakes (Ref. 5723). Most common in high mountainous areas where snowfields and glaciers are present (Ref. 5723). Rarely anadromous (Ref. 5723, Ref. 51243). Lacustrine form matures in lakes and spawns in tributaries, where young reside for one to three years (Ref. 10367).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00977 (0.00468 - 0.02039), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trophic level (Ref. 69278): 3.7 ±0.57 se; based on food items.

Resilienza (Ref. 120179): Molto basso, tempo minimo di raddoppiamento della popolazione più di 14 anni (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): High vulnerability (62 of 100).

Price category (Ref. 80766): Very high.
