| Range Extent: | F = 20,000-200,000 square km |
| Range Extent Comments: | ?The distribution of inconnu in B.C. is disjunct ? there is a freshwater-resident population in Teslin Lake and a migratory population in the Liard River system. The Liard population is biologically complex: some individuals appear to be part of the general upper Mackenzie River population and probably isn?t anadromous but other individuals are known to migrate to the Mackenzie Delta, and others tagged individuals have been taken in the Beaufort Sea. There is some evidence that some of the Liard population breeds in B.C.; however, no fry have been collected in B.C. although one juvenile was collected in the Ft. Nelson River. In contrast, the Teslin Lake population is thought to breed in the lake and appears to be isolated from the migratory Yukon populations.? (D.
