Golden topminnow
The golden topminnow (''Fundulus chrysotus'') is a fish of the genus ''Fundulus'' and is a United States native fish mostly distributed throughout the southeast; ranging from Kentucky and Ohio south into Florida. Although it has such a wide distribution throughout the south, the habitats and micro-habitats that it occupies do not differ much from one area of distribution to others. The golden topminow is a small surface feeding fish that tends to reproduce late in the spring season and on into the early parts of the summer, and although the fry reach maturity fairly quickly the longevity of the golden topminow is quite short. Because the golden topminow is lower in the trophic level and is a small fish, it primarily feeds on small and/or drifting organisms at, or near the surface of, vegetated areas. This particular topminnow is not currently listed as an endangered species, nor does it have any particular type of management plan.
==Geographic Distribution==
As stated above, the golden topminow is geographically distributed throughout the southeastern portion of the continental U.S. Specifically, the golden topminow inhabits the Santee River Drainage of South Carolina west to the Trinity River Drainage of Texas. It can also be found throughout the Mississippi Embayment north to Kentucky, and Missouri. Further south, the golden topminow inhabits the Lower Coastal Plain and is commonly scattered throughout Florida.〔Burr, Brooks M., Lawrence M. Page. 1991. A Field Guide to Freshwater Fishes: North America North of Mexico. 219-220.〕 It has even been documented stretching its distribution northwest, extending into the Gulf Coastal Plain in McCurtain County Oklahoma and Mississippi County Missouri〔Secor, Stephen M,. 1987. The Golden Topminnow, ''Fundulus chrysotus'' (''Cyrpinodontidae''), an Addition to the Fish Fauna of Oklahoma. The Southwestern Naturalist 38:522-525.〕 Outside of these areas, the golden topminow is extremely localized and uncommon.
