  • "Black Redhorse (Moxostoma duquesnei) was first designated as Threatened by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) in 1988. The author's analysis consisted of three parts: (i) information on vital rates was compiled and used to build projection matrices, using uncertainty in life history to represent variation in the life cycle for stochastic simulations; (ii) the authors used these matrices in a stochastic perturbation to determine the sensitivity of the population growth rate to changes in each vital rate and (iii) the projection matrices were used to simulate risk of extinction, and to estimate the minimum viable population (MVP) and the minimum area for population viability (MAPV) (i.e., the amount of suitable habitat required to support the MVP).The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) had assessed Black Redhorse (Moxostoma duquesnei) as Threatened in Canada (COSEWIC 2005). Here the authors present population modelling in support of the upcoming reassessment of the species, and incorporate new Canadian data collected since the previous assessment in 2005.--Includes text from document."
