Abstract
The next heavy quark is likely to be found first at colliders rather than at machines, in which case the expected signals from different kinds of candidate quark will be rather similar. We discuss the problem of distinguishing between the awaited top quark , a possible fourth-generation charge -⅓ quark , and an exotic isosinglet charge -⅓ quark .
