Abstrakt: Reports that two juvenile blueback herring were caught in Lake Ontario in October 1995, the first record of this anadromous marine clupeid in the Great Lakes. How blueback herring most likely gained entry to Lake Ontario via the Erie Barge Canal, a navigation canal that links the Mohawk-Hudson rivers, which drain to the Atlantic Ocean, to Oneida Lake, which drains to Lake Ontario through the Oneida-Oswego rivers.
