Thanks daymere,
It was interesting to go through the myrid adult fish species ranging from 4 to 8 inches, who inhabit even the smallest of streams, and make big brown trout very, very happy.
I'll bet there are a zillion of these little guys not even cataloged yet. Scuds and Madtom-like fishys that is. I can see it now... Scudus JapanRonicus or sum such!
Japan being such a segimented enviornment ecologically, every stream that exists has a sub-species of some of these smaller fish species. 47 such fish exist in the river I often fished ie the Sagamigawa.
