The northern redbelly dace (Chrosomus eos) is a fresh water cyprinid fish, generally found in lakes and small streams in the northeastern United States and eastern Canada. Ranging from 1–3 inches, it is one of forty-four species from the minnow and carp family of Cyprinidae in these areas.
This is a checklist of American reptiles found in Northern America, based primarily on publications by the Society for the Study of Amphibians and Reptiles (SSAR). [1] [2] [3] It includes all species of Bermuda, Canada, Greenland, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, and the United States including recently introduced species such as chameleons, the Nile monitor, and the Burmese python.
The southern redbelly dace (Chrosomus erythrogaster), is a North American species of temperate freshwater fish of the family Cyprinidae. The natural geographic range extends from Western New York to Minnesota , and south to Oklahoma , Arkansas , and Alabama . [ 2 ]

Unlike the closely related western red cedar (Thuja plicata), northern white cedar is only a small or medium-sized tree, growing to a height of 15 m (49 ft) tall with a 0.9 m (3.0 ft) trunk diameter, exceptionally to 38 metres (125 ft) tall and 1.8 metres (5.9 ft) diameter. [7] The tree is often stunted or prostrate in less favorable locations.
One of these species is the red-bellied turtle (Pseudemys rubriventris), whose habitat overlaps with G. nigrinoda, so the plan will be beneficial to the black-knobbed map turtle. Captive breeding has been an option for conservation efforts as well. Captive breeding is plausible for increasing population sizes in captivity. [9]
Under optimal conditions and full sun, northern red oak is fast growing and a 10-year-old tree can be 5–6 m (16–20 ft) tall. [4] Trees may live up to 400 years; [5] a living example of 326 years was noted in 2001. [6] [7] Northern red oak is easy to recognize by its bark, which features ridges that appear to have shiny stripes down the ...
