Extract

During the fall and winter of 1938 the author conducted a brief study of the food habits of trout in Rattlesnake Creek, Missoula County, Montana. In the course of this investigation numerous bottom samples were taken, the final analysis of which yielded interesting but incomplete information concerning the distribution of several species of mayfly nymphs over part of the stream.
