Habitat Type: Freshwater
Comments: In streams ranging from small spring discharges to large rivers; found rarely in upland areas. Usually associated with sandy substrate in areas with little or no aquatic vegetation and moderate to slow current (runs and pools). Avoids unsheltered locations and clean, unstable sand substrate. Also occupies sandy margins of lakes. May move into shallower water during the day. Spawns in shallows among submerged vegetation in Wisconsin (Becker 1983), in shallow water over sandy substrate in New Mexico (Sublette et al. 1990).
Comments: Localized threats may exist, but on a range-wide scale no major threats are known.
