Abstract
Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened ecosystems on the planet, yet freshwater fish species are frequently overlooked in conservation planning initiatives. Resource development is being planned for Ontario’s Far North (OFN) but due to a lack of data, the freshwaterscape is being largely overlooked. This study uses the Landscape Series Approach (LSA) to identify focal species as a starting place for research, management, and conservation of freshwater resources in OFN. It is the first study to apply the LSA approach on a freshwaterscape.
