| Comments | Bob Hrabik: Pflieger (1997) stated that this species is not native to any of the Missouri River drainage; it was introduced into the Osage prior to 1940 and spread; hence it likely also spread into the Mississippi River upstream of southern Illinois, it's original native range; first reported from the Meremec in the 1980s |
