Pteronotropis hubbsi - (Bailey and Robison, 1978) Bluehead Shiner
Natureserve shows that Michigan has Pteronotropis hubbsi under "Not ranked, under review". \
Are there any hints of Bluehead Shiners in Michigan, ever?
Michigan looking for Bluehead Shiners?

Not that I'd ever heard. My guess is that's why they are "under review." The very southern tip of Illinois was the top of their range, and even those have been wiped out from an industrial accident.
Their distribution is VERY spotty, with only some scattered little tiny pockets here and there, with most of those being only surviving little populations left behind when the great waters receded uncounted millenia ago. Very Southern Illinois was a stretch for them already, but Michigan?
If there are some in Michigan, then my guess is that somebody PUT them there.
I could be wrong. I often am, after all.
