* The original specimen from which this figure was taken is fortunately pre- 

 served in the British Museum, to which it has been kindly given by Mr. Couch. 

 It is in a very good state of preservation. Without this, one might have been 

 etisily induced to consider Mr. Couch's 8. gracilis alhed to those American 

 Salmonoids which have the anal fin prolonged. However, it is nothing but a 

 Salmon, in which neither is tlie head so small or of the peculiar appearance with 

 which it is represented by Mr. Couch, nor has the anal fin the number of rays 

 increased. We need not add that neither the form of the head nor the number 

 of anal rays could be so clianged by the process of preservation as to explain the 

 discrepancies between the original specimen and the figure given by Mr. Couch. 



t Under these names the young not only of the Salmon, but also of other 

 Salmonoids have been described.
