I caught these little guys yesterday in my minnow trap.

Definitely in the Fundulus genus but I can't tell you anymore than that. I'm sure somebody will know.
 
Well that's a start,thanks.
 
Sorry my books are all in storage and I don't believe that either one is a native of the Ozarks where I live. I will warn you that when I tried keeping some killifish, Blackspotted topminnows, they can and will Jump out of the tank so make sure you keep a lid on the tank with mesh covering the holes.
 
The first two pictures are mummichogs and the last picture it looks like a banded killifish.
