Chrosomus
''Chrosomus'' is a genus of small cyprinid fish found in freshwater habitats in the eastern half of the United States and Canada. There are currently seven recognized species in this genus. They have sometimes been included in ''Phoxinus''. They are the only members of the predominantly western subfamily Laviniinae that are found in eastern North America.

Chrosomus Tennesseensis
The Tennessee dace (''Chrosomus tennesseensis'') is a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found only in the United States; particularly in northeast Tennessee and southwest Virginia, and parts of extreme northwest Georgia. Until recently, they were considered a subspecies of mountain redbelly dace. They are commonly found in East Tennessee in spring fed first-order streams, often in silt and fine gravel pools, or undercut banks.Hamed, K. 2008. Life History Traits of the Tennessee Dace (''Phoxinus tennesseensis'') in Northeast Tennessee. ''The American Midland Naturalist''. 160: 289–299.

Chrosomus Erythrogaster
The southern redbelly dace (''Chrosomus erythrogaster''), is a North American species of temperate freshwater fish of the family Cyprinidae. The natural geographic range extends from Western New York to Minnesota, and south to Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Alabama.Page, Lawrence M. and Brooks M. Burr (1991), ''Freshwater Fishes'', p. 84, Houghton Mifflin, New York, NY. This fish prefers flowing pools of creeks and streams. The extremely similar northern redbelly dace can be distinguished by a rounder, blunter head and a more upturned mouth, as well as by differences in spawning behavior. Also, male southern redbelly dace show a characteristic red belly in spring while their northern counterparts keep a white belly.Richard H. Stasiak (2007), "Southern Redbelly Dace (Phoxinus erythrogaster): a technical conservation assessment", p. 11, USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Region.

Chrosomus Oreas
The mountain redbelly dace (''Chrosomus oreas'') is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus ''Chrosomus''. It is found in mountain and Piedmont regions of the Atlantic slope of North America from the Shenandoah River in Virginia, to the Neuse River drainage in North Carolina and the upper New River drainage in West Virginia West Virginia is a state in the Appalachian, Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern regions of the United States.The Census Bureau and the Association of American Geographers classify West Virginia as part of the Southern United States while the ..., Virginia, and North Carolina.

Chrosomus Saylori
The laurel dace (''Chrosomus saylori'') is a species of freshwater minnow native to the U.S. state of Tennessee. It was first discovered in 1976. A very rare species, it has only been found in localized populations in six small streams on the Walden Ridge portion of the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee. It is found in six streams: the Soddy, Horn, Cupp, Young's, Moccasin, and Bumbee Creeks, all of which drain into larger rivers that eventually feed the Tennessee River. It is believed to be extirpated from Laurel Creek, the only other stream where it was known to occur. It is commonly considered a nest associate and uses its large mouth and short intestinal tract to support an animal-based diet. Displaying sexual dimorphism, an average adult ''C. saylori'' measures approximately 45 mm at the age of reproduction.Skelton, C. E. 2001.

Chrosomus Neogaeus
The finescale dace (''Chrosomus neogaeus'') is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae of order Cypriniformes. It is native to the northern portions of Minnesota, with relatively smaller populations in northern New York, Vermont, New Hampshire (where ''C. neogaeus'' is found in only Connecticut and Androscoggin River drainages north of the White Mountains), and Maine. Distribution The finescale dace occupies the regions ranging across the southern and northwest parts of Canada to areas of Minnesota, and more southward to the areas that lie near the Great Lakes Basin. The populations have been shown to inhabit areas in Minnesota including Brule Lake, as well as those bodies of water occupying the Lake Superior drainage areas of St. Louis and Cook counties. This species has also been found to live in the Great Lakes drainage stream regions of Wisconsin (although rarely seen in southern parts of Wisconsin). Although more northernly distributed, they have been seen t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chrosomus Eos
The northern redbelly dace (''Chrosomus eos'') is a fresh water cyprinid fish, generally found in lakes and small streams in the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. Ranging from 1-3 inches, it is one of forty-four species from the minnow and carp family of Cyprinidae in these areas. Description The northern redbelly dace is a minnow about 55 mm long with two dusky, longitudinal stripes along its sides under an iridescent silver back. The top stripe often becomes broken into dots behind the dorsal fin. Small, almost invisible scales cover its body. The lower sides of its body are white, yellow, or silver. However, during the breeding season, this area becomes brilliant red on the males. The females likewise exhibit a colorful, green ventral stripe. Helpful identifying characteristics are its long coiling intestines and the black peritoneum (lining of the body cavity). Its lateral line is incomplete and consists of 70 to 90 lateral line scales.

Cyprinid
Cyprinidae is a family of freshwater fish commonly called the carp or minnow family. It includes the carps, the true minnows, and relatives like the barbs and barbels. Cyprinidae is the largest and most diverse fish family and the largest vertebrate animal family in general with about 3,000 species, of which only 1,270 remain extant, divided into about 370 genera. Cyprinids range from about 12 mm in size to the giant barb (''Catlocarpio siamensis''). By genus and species count, the family makes up more than two-thirds of the ostariophysian order Cypriniformes. The family name is derived from the Greek word ( 'carp'). Biology and ecology Cyprinids are stomachless fish with toothless jaws. Even so, food can be effectively chewed by the gill rakers of the specialized last gill bow. These pharyngeal teeth allow the fish to make chewing motions against a chewing plate formed by a bony process of the skull. The pharyngeal teeth are unique to each species and are used by ...

Laviniinae
Laviniinae is a clade of the subfamily Leuciscinae, treated as a subfamily of the freshwater fish family Leuciscidae by some authorities, which contains the true minnows. Members of this clade are known as western chubs or the western clade (WC) of minnows. As the name suggests, most members of this clade are found in western North America aside from ''Chrosomus'', which is found in eastern North America. One of the largest North American cypriniforms and the largest member of Leuciscidae, the Colorado pikeminnow (''Ptychocheilus lucius''), belongs to this subfamily.

Phoxinus
''Phoxinus'' is a genus of freshwater fish in the family (biology), family Leuciscidae of order (biology), order Cypriniformes, and the only members of the subfamily Phoxininae, or Eurasian minnows. The type species is ''Phoxinus phoxinus''. The other species in this genus are also commonly known as minnows. The name "minnow" was what early English fisherman used to describe "small and insignificant". The genus ''Phoxinus'' is found throughout Eurasia, and includes 21 known species. Previously, members of the North American genus ''Chrosomus'' were also believed to form part of this genus.Strange, R.M. & Mayden, R.L.
