Abstract:
Abstract - Troglichthys (= Amblyopsis) rosae (Ozark Cavefish) is currently known from 83 locations
within the Ozark Highlands ecoregion. We found a cavefish at a new location in the Grand Lake O’ the
Cherokees on the western side of the Neosho River (Delaware County, OK), which is on the northwest
periphery of the Ozark Cavefish range. Examination of the mitochondrial ND2 gene supports that the
specimen is an Ozark Cavefish, but distinct (4.6–9.2% pairwise distance) from other specimens that
have been genetically sampled, and could represent a unique population. Future research should focus
on expanding sampling efforts and conducting a range-wide genetic analysis of the Ozark Cavefish.
