Movements of shortnose sturgeon Acipenser brevirostrum, an endangered species, 
were studied for 5 years by radio telemetry and mark-recapture in the lower 140 
km of the Connecticut River to Long Island Sound, Ninety fish (range, 54-97 cm 
fork length; 1.2-9.2 kg weight) were equipped with radio transmitters. The cycle 
of annual movement consisted of several up- and downriver migrations between 
four discrete areas that were used for summer feeding, spawning, and 
overwintering.
