>>I WROTE: "... a nice map showing the (chattahoochee) river flows from northeast to southwest georgia, potentially running from very near Lgg range through the intergrade zone and subsequently through a lot of nigra range. "
MY INTERPRETATION WAS WRONG, AND THAT LED TO A WRONG CONCLUSION:
If you compare the wikipedia map with the hubbs range map you'll see the chattahoochee starts in or near Lgg range, runs for a while thru the intergrade zone and then returns to eastern king range for the balance of its flow (and the majority of its length).
So despite what i wrote in the post immediately above this, if it was the Chattahoochee that was mentioned as the river bank where the original albino king was found, it's most likely it was Lgg. Since we can't KNOW the answer, and are only trying to interpret clues here, i'd say given the magnitude of difference in length of the Chattahoochee vs the Chattooga, and the fact the former's in better collecting area than the latter, those clues point to the former and thus Lgg.
But let me be the first to acknowledge that's circumstantial evidence.
