posedly based on three specimens, so there may have been an error 

 in the original description. The SU bottle was broken during the 

 1906 earthquake, so there is also a possibiHty that another specimen 

 of the same species became mixed with SU 1954. 

 —Percina (Cottogaster) copelandi (Jordan). 



Ulocentra meadiae Jordan and Evermann, 1898, U.S. Nat. Mus. 



Bull. 47, p. 2852. 



Holotype: USNM 48903 (cf, 46), Tennessee, Indian Cr., trib. of 

 Powell R. at Cumberland Gap; R. R. Gurley; Oct. 17, 1893; figured 

 by Jordan and Evermann (1900, fig. 447). 



Paratypes: USNM 125623 (d^, 46), same data as holotype; orig. 

 BF 711. The third paratype was sent to SU according to a U.S. 

 Fish Comm. distribution list, but Bolilke (1953) did not list it among 

 the Stanford types, and we were unable to find it there. 



=Eiheostoma (Boleosoma) jessiae (Jordan and Brayton). 



Vaillantia chlorosoma Hay, 1881, Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus., vol. 3, p. 495. 

 Syn types: USNM 27428, Mississippi, branch of Tuscumbia R. at 

 Corinth; O. P. Hay; March- April 1880; completely disintegrated and 

 dried by 1937. SU 726 (3 9, 37-41), Mississippi, Macon; Hay. 

 Although not listed as types by Bohlke (1953), the data on the label, 

 plus a label reading "cotypes," lead us to believe this is part of the

original type material. The original description was based on speci- 

 mens from the Tuscumbia R. at Corinth, Sandy Cr. at Artesia, and 

 Horsehvmter Cr. at Macon. Some of this material was placed in the 

 U.S. National Museum, some in Jordan's collections, and the re- 

 mainder in the Butler University collection. It seems likely that 

 SU 726 represents material given to Jordan by Hay.
