Table 4 -- Salmonid fauna of recovery waters for greenback cutthroat trout. For species present at the time recovery efforts began in a particular water, abbreviations are: b, historically barren; gbct, greenback cutthroat trout; bk, brook trout; bn, brown trout; ct, hybridized or nonnative cutthroat trout; lk, lake trout; and rb, rainbow trout. We also note when a water was chemically treated to remove nonnative species, and if nonnative species reappeared, the year they were detected. Systems that were chemically treated more than once have multiple entries. For the form of barrier inhibiting upstream migration by nonnative fish, abbreviations are: a, artificial; g, geomorphic; and n, none. Artificial barriers consist of dams, water diversions, weirs, constructed ponds, or toxic mine outflows, whereas geomorphic barriers include waterfalls, cascades, dry stream channels, or naturally landlocked waters.
