sport fishing .[2]

Historic influence on hatchery rainbow trout

In 1877, the second California rainbow trout hatchery and the first federal fish hatchery in the

San Leandro hatchery, thus making the origin and genetic history of hatchery-bred rainbow trout somewhat diverse and complex.[4]
Rainbow trout eggs and fry from these two hatcheries were the original source of most artificially propagated rainbow trout in the world.

Polyphyly of stonei

The potential polyphyly of stonei was recognized by Behnke (1979, pg. 134) from anatomical characteristics "...stonei would be useful only as name for the trout of a particular geographical region (upper Sacramento River Basin), not as a natural evolutionary unit. I believe the great variability I found is the result of mixing of more than one ancestral form of redband trout, and with a coastal rainbow trout influence in some populations."[5] Analyses of genomic sequence data has demonstrated that redband trout of the upper McCloud River (above McCloud Falls) are a separate and distinct lineage of rainbow trout, while redband trout of the Pit River are of Great Basin origin.[6] The type material of stonei is similar to redband trout of the Pit River and Goose Lake while McCloud River redband trout are clearly differentiated anatomically from the type material of stonei.[5][7] The taxon O. m. calisulat Campbell and Conway 2023 was created to apply to the native redband trout of the upper McCloud River.[6]
