PMJI, and this may be way off, but: Scheel, for example, has looked closely
at various killies that have identical phenotypes but are infertile (some
BIV and CAL types). Granted, none that he examined were sympatric (is that
the word I want?), so assuming the purity of the parents of the red-finned
blue eyes this probably isn't an issue. But, given all of the talk on
hybrids, I thought I'd mention that perhaps there are two genetically
different populations found sympatrically. Or maybe one of the scientists
can tell us that this is impossible? My feeling is it probably is, but I
thought we could bring it up.
