| The only species present in Clyde Creek were blacknose shiner, Iowa darter, central mudminnow, and pearl dace. |
| The body of a darter is compact and spindle-shaped, gradually tapering from the short head to a narrow tail. |
| More than 200 species of birds are also found here, including the rare Storm's stork and the oriental darter, kingfishers and raptors such as the crested serpent eagle. |
| The implementation of plans was also begun or continued for the western chorus frog, spiny softshell turtle, channel darter and copper redhorse. |
| But no darter of mine should go out past the flats in one of 'em if I had the say. |
| Threats to the three darter species are mounting due to increased sedimentation of the watershed caused by urbanization. |
