Identification Comments ID complete | ID is taken from e-mail and and Acces database of character measurements provided by Bob Jenkins (Feb 5,2010); From his database he assigns a low level of confidence in his ID; "Of course, even now, we don’t have all Mex-Tex Moxostoma taxa described or sufficiently known taxonomically and geographically, thus reluctance to attach names to some lots, perhaps most notably those from the RG/B"; "From early recognized “subsp” (albidum and congenstum) overlap area, early thought to be possible “intergrades” and needing (along with many other lots I haven’t seen further study to det spp and/or hybrids."
