The largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) is one of several 'basses' that are actually members of the sunfish family. There are two recognized subspecies, the Florida and the Northern, which will blend genetically. Although the two subspecies differ slightly in body structure, behavior, and growth, biochemical tests are necessary to positively identify them.
