Appendix B. A table showing species included in review of 448 fish collections from the Great Plains as well as reproductive guild and body size classifications.

Table B1. Species encountered among 448 collections reviewed, number of those collections containing the species, species body size (large > 250 mm TL), and broad and specific reproductive guilds based on Simon (1999). Unknown guild classifications are marked for poorly studied species (?) or when taxonomic resolution precluded classification (genus level, -).
