Description
Abstract.--New geographic records are documented for 16 taxa of fishes within nine families (Anguillidae, Atherinopsidae, Catostomidae, Centrarchidae, Cyprinidae, Fundulidae, Hiodontidae, Icturalidae, Percidae) from 20 counties of the southern portion of Arkansas. Of these, 26 new county records for 13 (81%) of the species are presented. Other findings include new records and range extension for rarely collected species such as the mooneye (Hiodon tergisus), bluehead shiner (Pteronotropis hubbsi), mud darter (Etheostoma asprigene), swamp darter (Etheostoma fusiforme), and the undescribed Ouachita darter (Percina sp.). Most importantly, the brown madtom, Notorus phaeus is reported from Arkansas for only the second time since its original discovery in Columbia County in 1972. **********
