| Resource location | In 2008, specimens were collected in the Spring in riffle habitat above a large (fish overwintering) pool south of Slocan Park. In 2010, specimens were collected in Fall, at a side channel adjacent to an Island below Lemon Creek. This site lies mid-way down a channel with reduced flow and that is a prospective restoration site. |
