Tampichthys
''Tampichthys'' is a genus of cyprinid fish endemic to east–central Mexico. They are entirely restricted to the Pánuco River basin, except ''T. ipni'' which also occurs in some other Mexican rivers that drain into the Gulf of Mexico. These are small fish, generally no more than long, and overall brownish-silvery with a distinct dark horizontal line from the head to the tail base. Species ''Tampichthys'' was formerly considered a part of ''Dionda'' instead of a separate genus. There are six described species in ''Tampichthys'', but undescribed species are known. * ''Tampichthys catostomops'' ( C. L. Hubbs & R. R. Miller, 1977) (Pánuco minnow) * ''Tampichthys dichromus'' ( C. L. Hubbs & R. R. Miller, 1977) (Bicolor minnow) * ''Tampichthys erimyzonops'' ( C. L. Hubbs & R. R. Miller, 1974) (Chubsucker minnow) * ''Tampichthys ipni'' (Álvarez & Navarro, 1953) (Lantern minnow) * ''Tampichthys mandibularis'' ( Contreras-Balderas & Verduzco-Martínez, 1977) (Flatjaw minnow) * ' ...

Dionda
''Dionda'' is the genus of desert minnows, small fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae. They are native to fresh waters in the United States and Mexico. Their range is centered in the Rio Grande basin, but they also occur in associated systems, including Nazas– Aguanaval of north–central Mexico, and Nueces, San Antonio and Colorado of Texas. These are small fish, no more than long, and overall brownish-silvery with a distinct dark horizontal line from the head to the tail base. They are believed to feed primarily on algae. Species There are currently six species in this genus. Additionally, the species now placed in ''Tampichthys'' were formerly included in ''Dionda'' instead. * ''Dionda argentosa'' Girard, 1856 (Manantial roundnose minnow) * ''Dionda diaboli'' C.

Cyprinid Fish Of North America
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 scient ...

Pánuco River
The Pánuco River ( es, Río Pánuco, ), also known as the ''Río de Canoas'', is a river in Mexico fed by several tributaries including the Moctezuma River and emptying into the Gulf of Mexico. The river is approximately long and passes through or borders the states of Mexico, Hidalgo, Querétaro, San Luis Potosí, Tamaulipas, and Veracruz. According to the ''Atlas of Mexico'', it is the fourth-largest river in Mexico by volume of runoff, and forms the sixth-largest river basin in Mexico by area. The Pánuco is formed by the confluence of its two main tributaries, the Moctezuma River, Moctezuma and the Tampaón (or Tamuín). The Moctezuma originates on the Mexican Plateau, and its headwater streams include the Tula River. It runs northward, forming the state border between Hidalgo and Querétaro as it moves toward San Luis Potosí, before turning eastward to carve a deep canyon through the Sierra Madre Oriental. Once emerging onto the Gulf Coastal Plain, it runs northe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
