The concepts of home range and territory were used to describe the behaviour, since neither of the populations travelled freely up and down the stream. Both ideas were supported by earlier observations on other fish populations and by laboratory studies. Recent work strengthens this interpretation as well. The evidence for restricted movement by stream, lake, and ocean fishes is reviewed in the first part of the article. The question naturally arises as to why the fish have this habit, and the remainder of the discussion presents certain features of behaviour from this point of view.
