Slackwater Darter Presentation Tomorrow Night

The Flint River Conservation Association (FRCA) holds its monthly meeting tomorrow night, Tuesday, June 17, 6:30 at 320 Fountain Circle in downtown Huntsville. Jennifer Schade will present findings to date of a research project hosted by FRCA on habitat assessment for the Threatened slackwater darter, Etheostoma boschungi, in tributaries to the Flint River in Madison County, Alabama. This involves both GIS assessment of possible habitat, and species associations in sampled streams. The project is funded by a grant from the World Wildlife Fund's Southeast Rivers and Streams Support Fund. Some of you may know Jennifer as a soon-to-be-graduated Masters' student at UAH. If you come, it's a potluck supper so bring something.
