Thirteen of the 97 fish species collected from Tippecanoe County during 1994 (Table 2) were new records for the County and included the spotted gar (Lepisosteus oculatus), threadfin shad (Dorosoma petenense), central mudminnow (Umbra limi), streamline chub (Erimystax dissimilis), silver chub (Macrhybopsis storeriana), channel shiner (Notropis wickliffi), southern redbelly dace (
Phoxinus erythrogaster), mountain madtom (Noturus eleutherus), hybrid striped bass (Morone chrysops x M.
An intergeneric cyprinid hybrid,
Phoxinus oreas x Semotilus atromaculatus, from the James River drainage, Virginia.
Only adult stages of the species were included in the study with the exception of
Phoxinus erthyrogaster at the Spring Creek site, which were divided into juvenile (<40 mm) and adult (>40 mm) size classes.
However, much of the spawning behavior, age structure, and growth are likely to be similar to other
Phoxinus species where lifespans are generally limited to a maximum of three years, fecundities range from 724 to 2872 mature ova per female, and age class structure is dominated by one and two year old fish (Starnes and Starnes, 1981).
We surveyed the populations of
Phoxinus erythrogaster in Warren and Tallahatchie counties (Slack et al., 1995), and herein describe the habitat and ichthyofaunal associations of these populations.
To locate all accounts of Chrosomus spawning behavior, we conducted a Google Scholar search using the search parameters, "Chrosomus" or "
Phoxinus" or "spawning" and "reproduction" or "observations," as well as a Web of Science search for "TOPIC: (chrosomus) OR TOPIC: (
phoxinus) AND TOPIC: (spawning) AND TOPIC: (reproduction)." Finally, we searched through the state fish taxonomy books for all states where Chrosomus are native.

MN assay has been used in both laboratory and field studies in vertebrates e.g., fishes (Cyprinus carpio, Gambusia holbrooki, Poecilia latipinna, Salmo trutta, and
Phoxinus Phoxinus) (Sanchez-Galan et al., 1999; Ayllon and Garcia-Vazquez, 2000; Buschini et al., 2004; Russo et al., 2004).
Appetite and growth compensation in the European Minnow,
Phoxinus phoxinus (Cyprinidae), following short periods of restriction.
These microsatellite primers were previously shown to cross-amplify loci from the genomes of five other cyprinid minnow species; Rhinichthys atratullus (blacknose dace), Margariscus margarita (pearl dace), Exoglossum maxillingua (cutlips minnow),
Phoxinus eos (northern redbelly dace), and Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow).
