I have some fish from BG collecting trip. They have a heavy spotted pattern
above the black stripe and the stripe goes into the tail fin. The black
stripe on the males is almost as smooth as the females. I'm only familiar
with F. notatus from Michigan they only have spots in their fins here. I just
collected some notatus today and they look different. I believe what I have
is olivaceus is their any good field marks?
