Remarks: Original georeference taken from locality ID#2510. Original notes: According to the Gambusia Geigei Recovery Plan 'Graham Ranch Spring' is synonymous with 'Spring 4', 'Campground Spring' and 'Pumphouse Spring', but also thought to refer to what is here 'Spring Boquillas'. The location for this locality was translated into Terrain Navigator from a map on the recover plan document.
