	Darter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The darters or snake-birds are birds in the family Anhingidae.
		The darters are frequently referred to as “snake-birds” because of their long thin neck, which gives a snake-like appearance when they swim with their bodies submerged.
		The darters are monogamous and pair bond during the breeding season.

		This large increase is due primarily to the addition of many estuarine fishes that are known to occur in the Delaware river, an increased sampling effort among research scientists and fishery biologists, and improvements in sampling equipment.
		For example, a species of fish native to the Susquehanna River basin that is moved to the Allegheny River basin is considered to be an exotic in the Allegheny River basin.
		The second project is examining the potential ecological impacts of the introduced banded darter on native darters, particularly the shield darter and the tesselated darter.

	FINAL RULE: CHEROKEE DARTER/ETOWAH DARTER, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The Cherokee darter is endemic to the Etowah River system in north Georgia, where it is primarily restricted to streams draining the Piedmont physiographic province, and to a lesser extent, the Blue Ridge physiographic province.
		The Cherokee darter exhibits a disjunct and discontinuous distribution pattern indicating fragmentation and isolation of populations.
		These fish and their benthic habitat have been, and continue to be, impacted by range reduction, isolation by impoundment, and general habitat destruction.

		Their goal is to use captive breeding to reestablish fishes in their native habitats so they may be downlisted or removed from protected status altogether.
		These fish were propagated not to be reintroduced to the wild, but to be killed in water toxicity studies.
		Now it was time for David Etnier and his talk, "The Snail Darter Issue in Retrospect." If there's one darter the public has heard of, it's this one: a non-descript member of the Percina genus no one knew existed until Dr. Etnier hand-cupped a specimen while snorkeling in the Little Tennessee River in 1972.
