Hog Sucker
Alabama
- Found in the Mobile and Chattahoochee basins, the Alabama hog sucker has a large, rectangular head that is flat or slightly concave between the eyes.
Northern
- In Alabama, the northern hog sucker is limited to the Tennessee River drainage; the northern hog sucker is distinguished from the Alabama hog sucker by its 10 to 12 (usually 11) dorsal rays, a distinctly concave area between the eyes, and a gray to brown body and yellowish fins.
