Hayti. 



While at Port-au-Prince in December, 1917, IMr. P. C. Houseman 

 secured a few fishes which he presented to the Academy. They 

 are listed below. The few papers relative to the fish-fauna of Hayti- 

 Santo Domingo, are chiefly Hilgendorf's account^- and the notes 

 on the Eckman collection by Lonnberg.-^ Various scattered records 

 and descriptions are found in the principal works of Cuvier, Valen- 

 ciennes, Dumeril, Gunther and Vaillant and Bocourt. Evermann 

 and Clark^^ described several new forms more recently and the 

 viviparous cyprinodonts are included in Regan's paper,-^ while 

 Rivuhis heyei is described by Nichols.'-*^ Finally, the writer" re- 

 ported the Gabb collection from Santo Domingo, received at the 

 Academy in 1871, 1872 and 1874.
