4 PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM vol. 119 



were transferred to the University of Michigan. However, a number 

 are still missing. 



In addition to listing the type specimens, we have compiled a list 

 of the genus-group names proposed for the darters. The original 

 description for each was verified. We have attempted to discover 

 the first subsequent selection of type-species for those nominal genera 

 which lacked originally designated type-species. The list is divided 

 into available and unavailable genus-group names. 



To facilitate using this catalog, we have also compiled an alpha- 

 betical index of nominal forms, using the original spelling. The 

 author and the genus in which the species was originally described 

 follow the specific name. Abbreviations of museums presently hous- 

 ing type material of each form are given following the name. Mu- 

 seums with the holotype, lectotype, or most syntypes are listed first. 

 A museum abbreviation with a question mark indicates where the 

 types were probably originally deposited even though we could not 

 locate them. A question mark indicates we could not locate any 

 types and do not know where they might be. An "X" is used when 

 there was no type material^ or it is almost certainly lost. 



We express our deep appreciation to the curators and staffs of the 

 museums and collections which house the type material of the darters. 

 Type material is or has been in the collections listed below. Collec- 

 tions marked with an asterisk have been visited by one or both of the 

 authors (BBC, LWK). Other initials represent those who kindly 

 verified material in a few collections, with small holdings of darter 

 types, which we were unable to visit.
