"Dec. 31, 1936."

"The [southern] flounder ... is most common from North Carolina south along the Atlantic coast, throughout the Gulf, and as far east as Trinidad ... much given to penetrating sounds and ascending rivers."

Specimens collected: probably from the Louisiana or Mississippi coast, found in the New Orleans fish market by Milton Lindner; from the vicinity of Avery Island, La., by Mr. E.L. McIlhenny; and from the North Atlantic Ocean, about 12 miles out from Chesapeake Bay, found on a fish-landing pier at Norfolk, Va., by F.E. Firth.
