4. Goodea bilineata. 
Characodon bilineatus, Bean, Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus. 1887, p. 371, t. 20. fig. 2°. 
Skiffia bilineata, Meek, Publ. Columbian Mus., Zool. v. 1904, p. 144, fig. 45°. 
Hab. Mexico, Rio Lerma System : 
Leon in Guanajuato!; Huingo?. 
This species agrees with G. multipunctata in the number of scales and fin-rays, but 
has the dorsal fin placed further back, whilst the markings are quite different. 
5. Goodea whitii. 
Goodea whitei, Meek, Publ. Columbian Mus., Zool. v. 1904, p. 187, fig. 40°. 
Depth of body 8 to 4 in the length, length of head 4. Snout as long as or shorter than eye, the diameter of 
which is 3 to 32 in the length of head; interorbital width equal to the distance from posterior margin 
of pupil to free edge of operculum. 48 to 55 scales in a longitudinal series. Dorsal 14-17; origin 
equidistant from tip of snout and posterior end of caudal fin. Anal 12-14; origin posterior to that of 
the dorsal. Pectoral about # the length of head. Caudal truncate, the upper angle sometimes a little 
produced. Brownish above, yellowish below ; each scale of the upper part of the body with a dark spot; 
usually a blackish lateral stripe; vertical fins dusky, more or less distinctly spotted, sometimes with a 
pale edge and dark intramarginal stripe. 
Hab. Mexico, upper tributaries of the Rio Balsas: 
Yautepec!; Cuautla!. 
Here described from several specimens, measuring up to 90 mm. in total length, 
from Yautepec and Cuautla (Meek). 
6. Goodea lerma. 
Skiffia lerme, Meek, Publ. Columbian Mus., Zool. v. 1904, p. 142, t. 8°. 
Skiffia variegata, Meek, t. c. p. 148, fig. 44°. 
Depth of body 22 to 34 in the length, length of head 4. Snout shorter than eye, the diameter of which is 8 
in the length of head ; interorbital width equal to or a little more than the postorbital part of head. 
34 to 38 scales in a longitudinal series. Dorsal 12-15; origin equidistant from snout and base of caudal 
(3) or nearer the latter (2). Anal 13-153 origin posterior to that of the dorsal. Pectoral §—-4 the 
length of head. Caudal truncate. Males dark brownish; females olivaceous, with irregular darker 
spots ; sometimes an indistinct.dark lateral stripe and a spot or bar at the base of caudal; fins plain. 
Hab. Mexico, Rio Lerma System and Valley of Mexico: 
Celaya!; Lake Patzcuaro!; Lake Zirahuen?; Lake Chalco ?. 
Here described from a number of specimens, measuring up to 65 mm. in total length, 
from Lakes Patzcuaro and Zirahuen (J/eek). I am unable to detect any differences 
between the examples from these two lakes, sent as S. /erme and S. variegata respectively.

Skiffia multipunctata, Meek, Publ. Columbian Mus., Zool. v. 1904, p. 141°. 
Depth of body 2% to 24 in the length, length of head 4. Snout shorter than eye, the diameter of which is 3
