This is borderline painful... I mean really? Even after posting direct information giving specific information on Gar distribution... Really?

[Polypterus]

Seen that on National Geographic.

I saw that in a reference on the phylogenic relationships of gars that was written on paper by this old fart that studied them back in the 60's..

[E_americanus]

good grief people, although there was a legit question by the OP, and a real answer by peje, this is has gotten to be one of the DUMBEST threads in the forum.

the natureserve site gives plenty of info, just enter in the GAR SPECIES and it will give you a distribution map if you know how to operate the internets.

ALSO, you can check lepisosteidae.net which has the range linked with each species (again from Natureserve).--
