Cottus girardi

  • ... that male and female Potomac sculpins prefer to live in different habitat conditions?

  • Symbol confirmed.svg New enough, long enough, neutral, has inline citations, is not copied, hook format is okay, hook content is okay, review is done, no image. I'm not an expert on this subject, mind you, and the source text is confusing. It says male and immature Potomac sculpins prefer slow currents, while female and immature mottled sculpins prefer faster currents. They're comparing genders across two different species. Then they say the male mottled sculpins and female Potomac sculpins "exhibited use patterns intermediate to these," which I assume means they prefer medium currents - which would mean your hook is true. (If this were mine, I'd probably go with something like, "female Potomac sculpins prefer the faster currents of Naked Creek" just because it sounds vaguely sexual, but I'm corny that way.) --Rosekelleher (talk) 18:59, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
