Species: Oncorhynchus mykiss aguabonita

D - 1000-5000 square km (about 400-2000 square miles) - D - This subspecies is native to the southern Sierra Nevada: upper reach and tributaries of the South Fork of the Kern River, and Golden Trout Creek and its tributaries, an area encomapssing approximately 1,536 square kilometers, at elevations generally above 2,100 meters (Moyle 2002, USFWS 2002, Stephens et al. 2004). It has been introduced within the native basins and in hundreds of lakes and streams outside the native range; most of the populations outside the native range did not persist or have hybridized with cutthroat trout and other subspecies of rainbow trout, but there are some populations that may not have been affected by hybridization (Stephens et al. 2004).
