DIONDA DIABOLI (CYPRINIDAE), A NEW MINNOW FROM TEXAS

A new minnow, Dionda diaboli, related to D. episcopa Girard and D. rasconis (Jordan and Snyder), is decribed. The new species is based on specimens from the Devil's River and other spring-fed tributaries to the Rio Grande in Kinney and Val Verde counties, Texas. The holotype is University of Michigan Museum of Zoology No. 168971. Several populations of both related species were studied. The species are found to be made up of many isolated and morphologically distinct populations.
