In 2005 and 2009, two species of Cyprinidae, the Northern Redbelly Dace, Phoxinus eos, and the Golden Shiner, Notemigonus crysoleucas, were collected northeast of their know range, in Québec. These new records, indeed range extensions, are presented here with a short discussion on the fish fauna of the area and on the possibility of introductions.En 2005 et en 2009, deux espèces de Cyprinidés, soit le Méné ventre-rouge, Phoxinus eos, et le Méné jaune, Notemigonus crysoleucas, ont été capturées au nord-est de leur répartition connue au Québec. Ces nouvelles mentions, qui constituent des extensions d'aire, sont ici présentées de même qu'une courte discussion sur l'ichtyofaune de la région et la possibilité d'introductions.

A winterkill at Lake St. George, Ontario eliminated most of the piscivorous fish and some of the planktivores and also influenced zooplankton community structure. This disturbance and the subsequent recovery of the populations provided the opportunity to evaluate potential impacts of food and predators on the population structure and abundance of the dominant planktivore; the golden shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas). interpretation of the 8-yr data set suggested that there was a positive relationship between adult golden shiner condition and zooplankton abundance, but that this did not translate into a significant stock–recruitment relationship between female numbers and young-of-the-year (YOY) recruitment. Also, there was no significant relationship between golden shiner survival and zooplankton abundance. However, there were significant negative correlations between YOY and adult golden shiner survival estimates and predator abundances. We conclude that at Lake St. George, golden shiner recruitment and population density is strongly influenced by predator density and is not influenced by food abundance.
