The Maryland Darter is a possibly extinct species that used to be found in just one small riffle in Deer Creek, where they were found in a small group. That was back in the 80's though, none of them have been spotted since. There was a failed attempt to search for more in November of 2008. It lived in the transition between an upland and a coastal plain. They are not only endemic to Maryland (only found in Maryland), but they are possibly the rarest fish species in the world. And in case you need to know, it's scientific name is Etheostoma sellare.

'A proposed reservoir may put the survival of the amber darter at risk by altering water and habitat quality in the amber darter's downstream habitat. Because of the amber darter's limited distribution, practically any activity that could degrade habitat or water quality, such as logging, chemical spills, or construction could threaten the existence of the amber darter. Conservation efforts focus on habitat preservation.
