 Breeding individuals of N. cerasinus are usually found from middle
to late June, those of the closely related N. albeolus from 2 to 3 weeks
earlier. This may in part be accounted for by the cooler temperatures
of the headwater streams cerasinus inhabits. The difference in spawn-
ing time may be one explanation for the apparent lack of hybrids
between the two species.
