88 figs. 



This paper contains analytical keys, 



generic, specific, and clinical diagnoses to the 



trematodes which infect man, tables of syn- 



onomy, indications to geographical and 



zoological distribution, and references to 



medical treatment and to the literature. 



WILSON, H. V. Reports on an exploration 

 oft' the west coasts of Mexico, Central and 

 South America, and oft' the Galapagos 

 Islands, in charge of Alexander Agassiz,

 The collection of sponges described includes 

 47 species and subspecies, belonging to the 

 Hexactinellida, Monaxonida, and Tetractin- 

 ellida. Thirty-three species and subspecies 

 are new to science. In addition, some results 

 of general biological interest are discussed. 



FISHES.

 hama Islands.

 An article on the Fishes of the Bahamas, 

 accompanied b_v ten colored plates, and form- 

 ing a part of the work entitled ' " The Bahama 

 Islands," edited bj- George B. Shattuek. 



GILL, Theodore. State ichthyology of 

 Massachusetts. 



Science (new series), xx, No. 500, Sept. 9, 

 1904, pp. 321-338. 

 This was the subject of an address delivered 

 at Woods Hole before the Marine Biological 

 Laboratory on the evening of August 3, 1904. 

 "Only the salient features of a long history 

 are given." (1) A brief notice of the early 

 historians is followed by (2) an explanation 

 of some of the popular names of fishes and 

 fuller accounts of the contributions to ichthy- 

 ology of (3) William Dandridge Peck, (4) 

 Charles Alexandre Lesueur, (5) Jerome Crown- 

 inshield Smith, (G) David Humphrey Storer, 

 (7) Theodore Lyman, (8) Spencer F. Baird, 

 (9i G. Brown Goode and Tarleton II. Bean, 

 and (10) Hugh M. Smith. In conclusion (11) 

 attention is called to the number of fish 

 estrays from tropical waters. 



GILL, Theodore. Lahracinus the proper 

 name for the fish genus Cichlops. 



Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., xxvni. No. i:«4, 

 Oct. 5, 1904, p. 119. 

 The name Cichlops of Miiller and Troschel 



(1849) is precluded from retention by the 

 application of the name to a genus of birds 

 by Hodgson in 1844. Labracinun of Schlegel 



(1850) is revived in its place. 



Note on the genus Prlonuru.s or 



Acanthocaulos. 



Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., xxvni, No. l.'?8a, 

 Oct. 5, 1904, p. 121. 

 A new name (Acanthocaulos) was proposed 

 by E. R. Waite in place of Prionurus of 

 Lacepfede, supposed to have been first pro- 

 posed in 1830 and preoccupied Ijy Prionurus 

 of Ehrenberg in 1829. It has been proved that 

 Lacepede published his name as early as 1804. 



The striped l)a.ss of the St. Law- 

 rence. 



Forest and Stream, lxiii, No. 17, Oct. 22, 

 1904, p. .348. 

 In connection with a recent identification 

 of the "Bar" of the St. Lawrence with the 

 common striped bass (Roccus lineatus) it is 

 questioned whether it is not rather the Roccus 

 chrysops of the great lakes and interior 

 waters. More information is required. 



On the systematic relations of the 



ammod3'toid fishes. 



Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., xxviii, No. 1388, 

 Nov. 12, 1904, pp. 159-103, text figs. 1-4. 

 .\fter a notice of the views of previous 

 authors respecting the affinities of the Sand- 

 launces or Anunodytids, that family is 

 claimed to be most nearly related to the 

 Ilemerocoetids, and consequently to the 

 group of Jugtilares. EmboUchthys is retained 

 in the family and Cobitopsis far removed. 

 The principal synonyms of the familj- are 

 enumerated, and the genera Ammodytes and 

 Ilyperoplus maintained for the northern 

 forms. 



The sculpin and its habits. 



Smithsonian Misc. Colls., xlvii, Quar. 



issue, n, pt. 3, Jan. 31, 1905, pp. 34,S-3.59, 



pi. 49. 

 Indications are given as to (1) the sources 

 of information, (2) the characteristics of the 

 family of Cottids and genus Jfyoxocephalus 

 as well as vernacular nomenclature, and (3) 

 the specific and sexual characters of the Myoi- 

 ocephalus scorpio. The habits of the species 

 are considered in sections devoted to (4) the 

 localities it frequents, its food, and its utter- 

 ances, (.5) the mutual relations of the sexes, 

 (fi) its oviposition, and (7) its larval condi- 

 tions. The concluding s"ction (3) liriefly 

 notices the economical value of the fish.
