Abstract

"Fundulus blairae is described from material from eastern Texas, southeastern Oklahoma, and western Louisiana. A phylogenetic analysis indicates that F. blairae is a member of the Fundulus nottii species group and is most closely related to F. dispar. The analysis also indicates that F. cingulatus is most closely related to the F. nottii species group. Fundulus nottii and F. lineolatus, the other members of the species group, are sympatric with each other, whereas F. dispar and F. blairae are allopatric, both with each other and with the other two species. A phylogeny of the F. nottii complex and three other species of Fundulus is presented"--P. [1].
