206 MEMOIRS OF THE^CARNEGIE MUSEUM. 



Professor Ijima. Mr. Aoki is the most accomplished collector of fishes in Japan, 

 and his services to Jordan and Snyder in 1900 were invaluable. 



3. Collections made by Dr. Jordan assisted by Mr. M. Sagimoto, director of 

 the Zakoba market in Osaka, and by a former student, Mr. Michitaro Sindo, in 

 Kobe. These collections were mostly from Osaka, partly from the Yodo River, 

 and partly from the deep-water nets of the trawling fleet, which operates in the 

 Straits of Tsushima between Shimonoseki and Fusan. 



4. Collections made by Dr. Jordan at Matsubara on Lake Biwa with the aid 

 of Mr. Kogetsuko Nakagawa, a local fisherman. 



5. Collections made about Nagoya by Mr. Kingsbury, principal of a mission- 

 school, and his pupils. 



6. Collections made about Okayama by Mr. K. Kusano and Mr. Y. Otaki. 



7. A collection made by a former student of Dr. Jordan, Mr. Yoshiro Manabe, 

 teacher of science in the Kwansei Gakuin (college) at Kobe. 



8. Collections made by Dr. Jordan about Sendai and Matsushima Bay with 

 the aid of Mr. T. Takamura of the Sendai Museum. 



9. Collections made by Dr. Jordan and Mr. Manabe at the island of Awaji 

 near Kobe.
