I remember someone once posted different fish regions of north america and stated their was nothing unique to the northeast.

I recently learned that may be wrong. I just found out about a sucker species found in the Adirondacks of New York called the summer sucker that looks like a smaller white sucker.

The odd thing is this species is confined to an area that was mostly glaciated. Was it from a refuge where it is no longer found? Did it evolve (maybe from the white sucker) after the glaciers retreated?
