Percina Maculata-distribution
''Percina'' is a genus of small freshwater ray-finned fish, classified within the subfamily Etheostomatinae, part of the family Percidae, which also contains the perches, ruffes and pikeperches from North America. Like the similar fishes in the genus ''Etheostoma'', they are some species called "darters". More specifically, the genus as a whole is known as roughbelly darters, while certain species of ''Percina'' with a pattern of vertical bars on the flanks are called logperches. Species There are currently 49 recognized species in this genus: * ''Percina antesella'' J. D. Williams & Etnier, 1978 (Amber darter) * ''Percina apristis'' C. L. Hubbs & Hubbs, 1954 (Guadalupe darter) * ''Percina aurantiaca'' Cope, 1868 (Tangerine darter) * ''Percina aurolineata'' Suttkus & Ramsey, 1967 (Goldline darter) * ''Percina aurora'' Suttkus & B. A. Thompson, 1994 (Pearl darter) * ''Percina austroperca'' B. A. Thompson, 1995 (Southern logperch) * ''Percina bimaculata'' Haldeman, 1844 ...

Edward Drinker Cope
Edward Drinker Cope (July 28, 1840 – April 12, 1897) was an American zoologist, paleontologist, comparative anatomist, herpetologist, and ichthyologist. Born to a wealthy Quaker family, Cope distinguished himself as a child prodigy interested in science; he published his first scientific paper at the age of 19. Though his father tried to raise Cope as a gentleman farmer, he eventually acquiesced to his son's scientific aspirations. Cope married his cousin and had one child; the family moved from Philadelphia to Haddonfield, New Jersey, although Cope would maintain a residence and museum in Philadelphia in his later years. Cope had little formal scientific training, and he eschewed a teaching position for field work. He made regular trips to the American West, prospecting in the 1870s and 1880s, often as a member of United States Geological Survey teams. A personal feud between Cope and paleontologist Othniel Charles Marsh led to a period of intense fossil-finding competition ...
