Two Morphologically Different Forms of
Steelhead Trout
Inland or fine-scale form with redband trout-like characteristics
Coastal form
Landlocked “redband” trout with cutthroat-like characteristics (Oncorhynchus sp.)
![Page 14: Ken Curren's Steelhead Evolution & Diversity](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022020718/55591749d8b42a3d028b4d47/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Extant distribution does not simply reflect colonization
to the south
Coastal & Inland forms thought to reflect dispersal after isolation & differentiation in glacial refuges

Are Extant Distributions Always About Geology?
Life-history (e.g, ability to migrate, environmental tolerance) makes a difference
What about biotic interactions?
