FYI, I made a "boo boo" in my collecting / observation report for Long Island. On closer inspection, and reference to "Freshwater Fishes of the Northeastern United States" - by R. Werner, I see that the Sticklebacks
I've observed locally hear on Long Island are in fact Fourspine Sticklebacks (Apeltes quadracus). They are NOT the Brook Sticklebacks, as I thought. 20 lashes with a wet Lamprey for me. Now I wonder it the brookies are hear on LI.
The Fourspines, by the way, are a marine and freshwater adapted species.
