Translucent Blind Catfish Found In
Texas Cave
The Mexican blindcat, a species that grows to no more than 3
inches in length, is known to dwell only in areas supported by
the Edwards-Trinity Aquifer that underlies the Rio Grande basin
in Texas and Coahuila. The new blindcat finding lends additional
weight to a theory that water-filled caves below the Rio Grande
may connect the Texas and Mexico portions of the aquifer. Click
