Abstract
The euryhaline Threespine Stickleback, Gasterosteus aculeatus, is reported for the first time from ponds on Sable Island, located 290 km east of Halifax, Nova Scotia.This species was recovered from Middle Wallace Lake, East Wallace Lake and a small brackish pond just north of Wallace Lake.These fish may be recent introductions, or, alternatively, remnants of populations which occurred over an island archipelago which existed in offshore Nova Scotia during glacial and postglacial times.
