Hello - to answer you Q Andrew
fish = one or more individuals of a single species
fishes = one or more species; regardless of numbers involved
(text - Diversity of Fishes, Helman et al. 1997; p.6)
Can anyone send me some credible info on longear sunfish (Lepomis megalotis) occurance in the northeast ??
Esp. in NYS.... Currently searching for historical data...
