Suitable (a) and unsuitable (b) substrate for spawning and sonar sensor profile of the lake bottom (c). Traditional and innovative methodologies should be combined, such as radio tracking to study migration behavior, stomach content analysis to investigate food competition between the carpione and exotic fishes, and histological analysis of gonads to reveal details of reproductive biology. Unfortunately the small number of individuals caught in recent years has constrained new research endeavors. a. b. c.
