Approximately 100 brook trout were transplanted into each of four Virginia streams in September 2008. Garth Run and Kinsey Run were re-introductions, and Wildcat Hollow and Sweet Run were new introductions. Single pass electrofishing (EF) surveys were conducted with a backpack electrofisher five times during the study. Selected trout > 70 mm but < 100 mm and all trout > 100 mm received a Biomark® 134.2 kHz passive integrated transponder (PIT) tag to identify individual fish upon recapture. Trout were present in all streams almost three years post introductions. Catches decreased across the first four surveys. Young of year catch rates severely decreased from June 2009 (n = 77) to June 2010 (n = 7). Adult refuge under low flow conditions and environmental factors such as elevated stream temperatures and drought were determined to be potential limiting factors of brook trout success. Future monitoring is needed to further assess the populations.

Salmincola edwardsii is an ectoparasitic copepod typically found on the gills of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis). Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine: (i) the effects of temperature and photoperiod on early life cycle events, and (ii) the rate of larval development to adult. Egg incubation time, duration of copepodid swimming activity and copepodid survival time all decreased with increasing temperature. Different photoperiods had no effect. Hatching duration and hatching success were not influenced by either temperature or photoperiod. Copepodids remained alive and active for up to 16 days at 8$ sp circ$ and 5 days at 20$ sp circ$C. Adult male copepods were observed at 3 to 8 days after host exposure. They lived for up to 3 days. Adult females became permanently attached to hosts between 11 and 16 days post-infection.
