Range and Identity
The inventory retains Notropis greenei, while the checked treatment uses Miniellus greenei. Records include Ozark portions of the Mississippi, Missouri, White and Arkansas systems in Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma. These tributary records should not become an unqualified claim for every reach of the larger rivers.
Habitat and Behavior
Adults use flowing pools and runs over sand, gravel and rubble. The presence of a pool does not imply stagnant water; flow is part of the account. Retaining both bottom material and current position makes a habitat observation more informative.
Food and Life History
The upper reference is 7.5 centimeters total length, with 5.4 centimeters as common. The checked summary does not establish an independently supported maximum weight, detailed feeding list or definite migration pattern. These are not borrowed from a different Ozark shiner.
Field Note
Keep the original genus treatment with the locality record. An updated name should connect to earlier observations rather than creating a second fish entry or silently transferring another species' measurements.
