Cystidia are terminal cells of hyphae in the hymenium which do not produce spores, and function in aiding spore dispersal, and maintaining favorable humidity around developing spores. [25] The pleurocystidia are cystidia that are found on the face of a gill; they are 40–56 by 6.4–8 μm, roughly spindle-shaped, and have a constricted apex.
The greengill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus × cyanellus) is sometimes referred to as hybrid sunfish or bluegill x green sunfish hybrid. It is a hybrid between a bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) and green sunfish (Lepomis cyanellus).

The pumpkinseed x bluegill sunfish [1] (Lepomis gibbosus x macrochirus), sometimes colloquially referred to as hybrid sunfish or pumpkingill, [citation needed] is a hybrid between a pumpkinseed (Lepomis gibbosus) and a bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus). [2] They are sometimes found in lakes and ponds where both parent species are present. [2]
