Beautiful fishes, we are not accustomed to seeing these species ! Especially the Lepisosteus platostomus, his teeth on the photo number 2 are impressive ! It look like a crocodile.
Have you caught them where you live ?

Jolis poissons, on n'a pas l'habitude de voir ces espèces ! Particulièrement le Lepisosteus platostomus, ses dents sur la photo le numéro 2 sont impressionnantes ! On dirait un crocodile.
Les avez-vous attrapées où vous vivez ?

Thank you very much for your very nice pictures. When you have so beautiful native fishes, it is a good idea to take some and put it in a home tank. Here we just have some of your native fishes (considered really as pests because they destroy a lot native fauna) named lepomis gibbosus. We call it sun perch or rainbow perch. We also have gambusia affinis (mosquito fish) and unfortunately what we call Florida turtles (certainly trachemys scripta) and 3 kinds of very invasive and dangerous crayfish.

We also have Mosquitofish- Gambusia affinis non-native, Pumpkinseed - Lepomis gibbosus-native, and Red-Eared Sliders - Trachemys scripta- native. We only have 1 nuisance non-native crayfish in Kansas - Rusty Crayfish- Orconectes rusticus. Our biggest nuisance problem is from Silver Carp- Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, and Zebra mussels- Dreissena polymorpha.

We do have some other non-native species that are not nuisance species because they are only found inside cities and are not a threat to native species. Italian Wall Lizard- Podarcis sicula, Western Green Lacerta- Lacerta bilineata and Mediterranean Gecko- Hemidactylus turcicus.
