The Shoshone pupfish, ''Cyprinodon nevadensis shoshone'', is characterized by large scales and a "slab-sided," narrow, slender body, with the arch of the ventral contour much less pronounced than the dorsal. It also has fewer pelvic fin rays and scales than the other pupfish subspecies. ==Location== *Shoshone Springs *upper Amargosa River *Amargosa Desert *Amargosa Valley *21 km north of Tecopa, California *Inyo County, California * *Considered extinct by the late 1960s; rediscovered 1986 at spring's outflow.〔( JSTOR: The Southwestern Naturalist, Vol. 39, No. 3 (Sep., 1994), pp. 300-303 . accessed 6/22/2010 )〕 *Shoshone Spring outflow, Shoshone, Inyo County, California. * *Rediscovery by F.
