DOROSOMATIDJ]. 



Genus DOROSOMA Rafinesque. 



35. DOROSOMA CEPEDIANUM HETERURUM {Rnf.) Jor. 



The " Gizzard Shad " is abundant in the Lower Tennessee. 



SALMONIDJS. 



Genus SALVE LIN US Bichardson. 

 36. Salyelinus fontinalis {Mitchill) Gill & Jor. 



This species occurs in abundance in Swannanoa Eiver, at the foot of 

 Black Mountain, and in all clear tributaries of the French Broad in West- 

 ern Xorth Carolina. In Southwestern Virginia, it occurs in certain trib- 

 utaries of the Holston. In Eabun County, in Northeastern Georgia, it 

 abounds in the headwaters of the Little Tennessee. Professor Cope 

 states, on the authority of Dr. Hardy, of Asheville, that it "occurs in the 

 headwaters of the Chattahoochee, on the south slope of the Alleghanies, 

 in Georgia". 



OYPRINIDiE. 



Genus CAMPOSTOMA Agassis. 



37. CAMPOSTOMA anomalum {Baf.) Ag. 



Yar. prolixtim Storer. 



Everywhere abundant. In the clear pools of the Swannanoa River, 

 at the foot of Black Mountain, this fish is extremely abundant, and the 

 large specimens are brilliantly colored, so that they appear to be lumi- 

 nous or phosphorescent as one looks down on them through the crystal 

 water. 



Genus HYBORHYNCHUS Agassis. 



38. HYBORHYNCHUS NOTATUS (Bof.) Agassiz. 



Numerous specimens from the Chickamauga River. These are nar- 

 rower-headed than the common Western form {H. siiperciliosiis Cope) 

 and want the barbel, which is usually distinct on the latter. It is not 

 improbable that we have two distinct species.
