Range and Identity
Fundulus waccamensis is associated with Lake Waccamaw in Columbus County. A Phelps Lake record in Washington County has been described as probably resulting from introduction. That possibility should remain qualified rather than becoming proof of a naturally continuous distribution between the lakes.
Habitat and Behavior
Adults occur over sand both near and away from shore, often close to vegetation. They swim just below the surface in the account. This describes their position in the water column without establishing a complete feeding list or a fixed daily movement pattern.
Food and Life History
The upper reference is ten centimeters total length, compared with 6.5 centimeters as common. The species is not an annual killifish whose adults necessarily disappear each dry season. An independent maximum mass and detailed breeding sequence remain unestablished in the checked summary.
Field Note
Retain the exact lake and whether the record is considered native or introduced. Those details are more informative than treating the shared common name as a complete geographic description.
