Acipenser sturio Linnaeus. 



Two large ones in the Rehoboth pound. The larger measured 

 104| inches in length, and yielded about 50 pounds of caviare. 



Lepisosteus OSSeus (Linnaeus). 



May 8, 1913, Mr. Poole informs me "large ones were very abundant 

 in the dam at Greens Mills, which is near Bridgeville. The stream 

 is the northwest fork of the Nanticoke." 

 Pomolobus mediocris (Mitchill). 



Small ones at Rehoboth and Lewes. 

 Pomolobus pseudoharengus (Wilson). 



Very abundant at Rehoboth and Lewes. 



Alosa sapidissima (Wilson). 



Saw a few, possibly a dozen each day, at Rehoboth. Few at 

 Lewes. 

 Brevoortia tyrannus (Latrobe). 



Very common at Rehoboth. Among the multitudes examined 

 but one had Olencira prcegustator in its mouth, besides being para- 

 sitized by Lernecenicus radiatus. The latter was common on almost 

 every fish. Few at Lewes.
