Zoogoneticus Purhepechus
''Zoogoneticus'' is a genus of splitfins that are endemic to the Lerma–Chapala– Grande de Santiago, Armería, Ameca, Cuitzeo and Zacapu basins in west-central Mexico. They inhabit lakes, streams, ponds, canals and ditches, and prefer shallow waters with no or only a moderate current. They are predators that feed on small invertebrates. ''Zoogoneticus'' are fairly small fish, reaching up to in total length. Species There are currently three recognized species in this genus: * '' Zoogoneticus purhepechus'' Domínguez-Domínguez, Pérez-Rodríguez & Doadrio, 2008 * '' Zoogoneticus quitzeoensis'' ( B. A. Bean, 1898) (Picotee goodeid) * ''Zoogoneticus tequila ''Zoogoneticus tequila'', Tequila splitfin or simply Tequila fish, is a species of goodeid fish (family Goodeidae) from Mexico.

Zoogoneticus Tequila
''Zoogoneticus tequila'', Tequila splitfin or simply Tequila fish, is a species of goodeid fish (family Goodeidae) from Mexico. The specific epithet, ''tequila'', derives from the Tequila Volcano, which looms near the type locality. Distribution and conservation ''Zoogoneticus tequila'' is endemic to the Ameca River basin in west-central Mexico. Its current distribution is restricted to a single spring pool in Teuchitlán, only in diameter, where a population consisting of less than 50 adult fish live. Even in this habitat, it is outnumbered by introduced guppies by a factor of six. Before the discovery of the pool population in 2000/2001, ''Zoogoneticus tequila'' was generally thought to inhabit rivers; however, no fish could be found in the original habitat and the species was considered extinct in the wild. Introduced fish species have been implicated in the disappearance of ''Zoogoneticus tequila'' from its type locality. Habitat deterioration may also have contributed. P ...

Freshwater Fish Genera
Fresh water or freshwater is any naturally occurring liquid or frozen water containing low concentrations of dissolved salts and other total dissolved solids. Although the term specifically excludes seawater and brackish water, it does include non- salty mineral-rich waters such as chalybeate springs. Fresh water may encompass frozen and meltwater in ice sheets, ice caps, glaciers, snowfields and icebergs, natural precipitations such as rainfall, snowfall, hail/ sleet and graupel, and surface runoffs that form inland bodies of water such as wetlands, ponds, lakes, rivers, streams, as well as groundwater contained in aquifers, subterranean rivers and lakes. Fresh water is the water resource that is of the most and immediate use to humans. Water is critical to the survival of all living organisms. Many organisms can thrive on salt water, but the great majority of higher plants and most insects, amphibians, reptiles, mammals and birds need fresh water to survive. Fresh ...

Endemic Fish Of Mexico
Endemism is the state of a species being found in a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. For example, the Cape sugarbird is found exclusively in southwestern South Africa and is therefore said to be ''endemic'' to that particular part of the world. An endemic species can be also be referred to as an ''endemism'' or in scientific literature as an ''endemite''. For example ''Cytisus aeolicus'' is an endemite of the Italian flora. ''Adzharia renschi'' was once believed to be an endemite of the Caucasus, but it was later discovered to be a non-indigenous species from South America belonging to a different genus. The extreme opposite of an endemic species is one with a cosmopolitan distribution, having a global or widespread range. A rare alternative term for a species that is endemic is "precinctive", which applies to s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Goodeinae
Goodeinae is a subfamily of splitfins from Mexico, part of the family Goodeidae. They are small fish which mostly live in fresh water, especially around Mesa Central, west of Mexico City. Members of the subfamily are also found in brackish water on both the east and west coasts. They typically have small ranges and many are seriously threatened (some already extinct). The subfamily takes its name from its type genus ''Goodea'' and so is ultimately named after the American ichthyologist George Brown Goode (1851-1896). Genera The following genera make up the subfamily Goodeinae: * ''Allodontichthys'' C. L. Hubbs & C. L. Turner, 1939 * '' Alloophorus'' Hubbs & Turner, 1939 * ''Allotoca'' Hubbs & Turner, 1939 * '' Ameca'' R. R.
