Range and Identity
The inventory name Nothonotus douglasi is retained, while the checked account uses Etheostoma douglasi. Those alternative genus treatments should remain connected to the original record. The common name alone does not establish that every darter from the wider Tuscaloosa area belongs to this species.
Habitat and Behavior
The available summary supplies an Alabama distribution but little detailed ecology. It does not establish a particular substrate, current speed or feeding list. Such details should come from identified observations rather than the habits of another Alabama darter.
Food and Life History
The 3.4-centimeter standard-length value is treated as a specimen reference. It excludes the tail and is not promoted as a verified maximum. An independent maximum weight and complete spawning account were not established in the checked material.
Field Note
Keep the exact stream and specimen identification with any measurement. That preserves useful evidence without turning one collected fish into a biological limit for the species.
