Threatened Fish Gets 524 Miles of Habitat in Mississippi 
US Source: Associated Press 4/7/2023

More than 500 river miles have been designated critical habitat for a threatened fish species once found in Louisiana and Mississippi but now known only in part of its historic Mississippi range
 

The Center for Biological Diversity and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Wednesday that the habitat designation affects the Pearl darter, a 2½-inch-long (6-centimeter-long) fish named for the Pearl River, but which is no longer found there or in any of its tributaries. Instead, remaining populations are found along the Pascagoula River system in southeast Mississippi — about 43% of the fish’s historic range.
