have five to eight tubular scales in fore part of lateral line. Largest

(5). On October 13 we visited the Paint Rock River at Paint 

 Rock, in Jackson County. This broad stream, tributary also to 

 the Tennessee River, was partly clear, though muddy in places. 

 Below the dam we found a few stony shoals, especially about the 

 fords. A mile below were high banks, where the bottom was 

 largely clay, and only one place with a few submerged aquatic 

 plants. Also, in many places the shoals were full of snags. In 

 most places the only fish were free-swimmers, as we could not 

 drag the shoals on account of the rocks on the bottom. 



Ameiurus natalis (Le Sueur). Saw one dead exanple. 



Campostoma anomalum (Rafinesque). Fourteen examples. 



Pimephales notatus (Rafinesque). Ten, largest 75 mm. 



Opsopoeodus emiliae Hay. • 



Head 4; depth 4§; D. n, 8, i: A. n, 7, i; scales 35 in lateral 

 line to caudal base and 2? more on latter; 6 scales above I. 1., 4 

 below; 19 predorsal scales; snout 4 in head from upper jaw tip; 

 eye 3i; maxillary 4£; interorbital 2f. Body fusiform, com- 

 pressed. Head compressed. Muzzle obtuse. Snout depressed, 

 length f its width. Eye large, greater than snout, less than inter- 

 orbital. Mouth small, cleft less than pupil, vertically oblique, 

 mandible well protruded and snout tip level with upper part of 

 pupil. Interorbital broadly convex. Predorsal scales little crowded, 

 somewhat narrowly imbricated along side of trunk, moderate 

 on breast, apical radiating striae 6 or 7, circuli coarse. Dorsal 

 inserted little nearer snout tip than caudal base, first branched 

 rays depressed back much further than last. Color in alcohol 

 very pale olivaceous above, sides and below silvery-white. Dusky 

 lateral band, made up of black dots, on preorbital and opercle 

 to caudal base, where ending in slight dusky spot, width much 

 less than pupil. Fins all pale, with dusky dots along bases of 

 dorsal and anal and row down predorsal. Length 48 mm. 



Besides the above I examined another example in the Academy,
