Before its discovery in the Poteau River, the pea-lipped redhorse was known only from one record for the Chickaskia River in north-central Oklahoma, another at the mouth of the Verdigris, and the most recent record of Riggs and Moore (9) when they collected one specimen in the Red River near Lake Texoma.
The northern half of the Poteau River watershed in Oklahoma is in the Osage-Savanna Biotic District (1), characterized by the dominance of post oak and blackjack forests and intermittent tallgrass prairies.

The push by 82nd Airborne was finally put to a halt when two battalions were caught crossing the river in transport mode, by the PzIVs of the Fuhrer Begleit Brigade, the river was held by both sides and a further operation will be needed to cross the Salm.
I chose this crossing over the river above the village of Vielsalm because of the bridges, many of the Brigades vehicles would need the heavier bridges to the South and there was no need for two crossing points.
In the west, there is steadily building pressure from the 82nd Airborne which is making a crossing of the Salm unthinkable at present, especially with a relatively intact CCA pocketed behind my lead units - its time for consolidation in the north, Poteau is captured and the guns are brought forward.
