Long term goals include: 1) developing a baseline status report of current and historic 

 Harlequin populations in Montana; 2) gathering information on site fidelity, reproduction and 

 mortality to allow estimations of what constitutes viable Harlequin populations; 3) developing 

 surveying protocols for actual and potential Harlequin streams; 4) developing management 

 guidelines for maintaining and restoring Harlequin populations and habitat; and 5) identify 

 coastal areas where Harlequins from the Northern Rockies occur. Goals for 1994 included: 1) 

 surveying additional streams for presence and status of Harlequins; 2) gathering productivity data 

 on some primary Harlequin streams; and 3) marking as many individuals as possible on selected 

 streams for long-term monitoring.
