Smallmouth buffalo I. bubalus and black buffalo I. niger recaptures from Apache Lake, Arizona. An individual smallmouth buffalo (RCID#1 in Table 4) was caught twice in 4.33 years (a–d). This specimen was noted for black spots on its left operculum and dorsal anterior (see arrows and insets in a–b), as well as a black spot on its head, posterior and dorsal of its right eye (see arrows c–d). This specimen (RCID#2 in Table 4) increased from 7.17 to 9.41 kg and the distance between captures was 13.0 km (see Fig. 1). (e–f) An individual black buffalo (RCID#25 in Table 4) was caught twice across a 7-month period. This specimen was noted for black spots on its left side (see arrows and insets in e–f). This specimen decreased from 6.46 to 6.24 kg (see Table 4) across captures.
