white, with traces of a plumbeous lateral streak. Head 4 ; depth 4J. 

 D. 8 ; A. 8 ; scales 5-39-3 ; teeth 1, 4-4, 1, two or three of the teeth ob- 

 tuse, not hooked, only one or two of them showing a masticatory sur- 

 face. L. 4 inches. Sautee Basin, North and South Carolina.

220. C. storersa:aa (Kirt.) J. & G. 



Body elongate, considerably compressed in the adult. Head quite 

 short. Muzzle blunt, decurved, shorter than the very large eye, which is 

 3 in head. Top of head flattened, somewhat concave between orbits. 

 Greatest depth of head* nearly three-fourths its length. Mouth mod- 

 erate, nearly horizontal, the jaws nearly equal, the maxillary extending 

 to the eye. Lateral line nearly straight, slightly decurved anteriorly. 

 Eighteen scales before dorsal. Coloration very pale, sometimes a dusky 

 spot at base of caudal, especially in the young. Sides with a broad 

 silvery band. Pectorals not reaching ventrals, the latter not to vent. 

 Caudal fin long, the lower lobe the longer, dusky, with a pale edge. 

 Head 4f ; depth 4. D. 8 ; A. 8 ; scales 5-39-4 ; teeth 1, 4-4, or 1. L. 

 4-8 inches. Great Lake region to South Carolina. One of our largest 

 minnows. Perhaps more than one species is here included, but we fail 

 to distinguish with any certainty the Eastern amara from the lake form 

 (storeriana), from which the above description was taken.

This species scarcely differs from the foregoing except in the some- 

 what darker coloration, the black caudal spot being usually distinct, 

 and in the dentition, several specimens examined having the teeth 2, 

 4-4, 1, instead of 1, 4-4, 0, as in the preceding. The proportions, scales, 

 and fin-rays seem to be the same, and the form of the head and mouth 

 do not essentially differ. Streams coastwise, New York to Virginia.
