Range and Identity
Clinostomus funduloides occurs in Atlantic-slope waters largely above the Fall Line and parts of the Ohio basin. Older accounts recognize multiple regional forms. The scientific identity should therefore remain linked to the collection place rather than treating every eastern dace as the same population.
Habitat and Behavior
Adults inhabit rocky flowing pools in headwaters, creeks and small rivers. Small clear streams are especially common in habitat descriptions. A pool can retain a steady current, so that term should not be read as an automatic description of stagnant water.
Food and Life History
The upper reference is 11.5 centimeters total length, with 6.7 centimeters given as a common size. The retrieved summary does not establish an independent maximum mass or detailed breeding timetable. Feeding behavior from the related Redside Dace is not transferred solely because their names are similar.
Field Note
Keep the species name and drainage together. This separates a Rosyside Dace record from observations of other dace that share clear-stream habitat or reddish coloration.
