"Carmine Shiner (Notropis percobromus) is a small-bodied Leuciscidae that in Canada is restricted to the Whitemouth and Winnipeg river drainages in Manitoba. The Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) last assessed Carmine Shiner as Endangered (COSEWIC 2018). Currently, Carmine Shiner is listed as Endangered under Canada's Species at Risk Act (SARA). COSEWIC is responsible for assessing the status of species in Canada, and an important consideration of that assessment is the relative abundance and present distribution. Using a standardized sampling protocol developed by Fisheries and Oceans Canada, field work was undertaken in July 2021 at 16 access points within the known range of Carmine Shiner. Species range extension was assessed at three additional access points. Carmine Shiner (n = 2,819) were confirmed at all access points within the species known range. Three specimens were collected at a range expansion access point downstream of McArthur Falls Generating Station on the Winnipeg River"--Abstract, page vi.
