(See the species account of P. neogaeus below.) The isolated populations indicate P. neogaeus used to have a much broader geographic range. These isolated populations might be the descend from glacial populations that failed to expand following the deglaciation (Underhill 1957), or due to the similar causes for the isolated populations of P. erythrogaster discussed by Cross (1970) (see below). Mahy (1975c) interpreted the present distribution of P. neogae- us as northern dispersal of the species from its refuge. The Pleistocene glaciation in North America during which ice covered the area to 40° (N. lat.) played an important role in the current geographical distribution of the North Ame- rican freshwater fishes (Underhill 1957, McPhail 1963, Cross 1970). During the glacial advances, the range of fishes in the area covered by the ice were forced to southward, ex- cept some may have persisted in refuge that remained ice-free. The current geographical.
