On September 25, 1910, I visited Lake Hopatcong and secured the 

 following in Hurd Cove, near the upper end of the lake: Abramis 

 crysoleucas, Catostomus commersonnii, Erimyzon sucelta oblongus, 

 Ameiurus nebulosus, Schilbeodes gyrinus, Esox americanus, Umbra 

 pygmcea, Pomoxis sparoides, Acantharchus pomotis, Enneacanthus 

 gloriosus, Lepomis auritus, Eupomotis gibbosus, Micropterus dolomieu, 

 and Stizostedion vitreum. As some of these are distinctly lowland 

 fishes, it is interesting to note them at such a high altitude.
