Nativeness Notes
Alosa pseudoharengus is a recent addition (ca. 1930) to Lake Erie’s fauna,
and is thought to have extended its range from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie via
the Welland Canal. I wasn’t sure if this made A. pseudoharengus
“non-native” or not. (Source: Trautman, M.B. 1981. The Fishes of Ohio.
