Fecundity of resident Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) in an isolated population of southeastern Alaska averaged 66 eggs per female in comparison with 1888 eggs for anadromous Dolly Varden from two nearby streams. A relatively large egg size, averaging 3.6 mm in diameter and overlapping the range for the anadromous char, has been retained by the females in the resident population. Curvilinear regressions between egg number and fish length and linear regressions between egg number and body and ovary weights show that resident females have fewer eggs per unit of length, approximately the same number of eggs per gram of body weight, and more eggs per gram of ovary weight than anadromous females. The resident char attain sexual maturity a year earlier in life and at a smaller size than the migratory char. Development of a larger left ovary containing more eggs than the right was a common occurrence for both resident and anadromous Dolly Varden.

The effect of predation by river otters (Lutra canadensis) on juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) in a Southeast Alaska watershed was inferred by examining the number and size distribution of sagittal otoliths that were found in otter scats. Individual scats contained up to 408 otoliths, indicating that at least 200 fish had been eaten between defecations. Otoliths from juvenile salmonids outnumbered those from coastrange sculpins (Cottus aleuticus) by about six to one. Based on examination of over 8000 otoliths found in otter scats, at least 3300 juvenile salmonids were eaten by two river otters and their two young in the Kadashan River system during a 6-wk period in late spring 1985.
