Salmo hudsonicus, Siwkley, Ann. Li/c. Xat. Hist. N. York, 18G1, vii. 

 p. 310. 



Head small and conical. Mouth quite small. Teeth small; a 

 few on the head of the vomer ; none on its shaft. Tail broad, and 

 usually barred. In some specimens the bars ajjpcar to have faded 

 out. Upper parts dark (bluish ?) ; sides brighter ; belly white. The 

 whole fish quite silvery. Scales small, but larger than in S. fontinalis ; 

 they are firmly adherent, and quite conspicuous. Flanks of adults 

 above and below the median line covered vnth light spots about the 

 size of smaU peas. Integument over first ray of pectorals of a 

 light orange or reddish colour ; that over the next ray dark. Female 

 nearly similar. Would not be easily confounded with any Atlantic 

 species except S. fontinalis, but has smaller head, larger spots, and 

 larger, more adherent, and thicker scales. (Sucklet/.) 



Hudson's Bay and vicinity, Labrador, Newfoundland. 



28. Salmo sebago. 



Salmo sebago, Girard, Proc. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. 1853, p. 380. 



Some Salmonoid from the southern part of the state of Maine, 

 with 115 scales in the lateral lino. No mention is made of the 

 vomerine teeth, or whether the fish is migrator^' or not. The pos- 

 terior half of the maxillary is desciibed as regularly and most deci- 

 dedly curved downwards, but it is not said whether this is the case 

 in both sexes, or in one sex only. Body, dorsal and caudal fins with 

 subquadrangular or subcircular black spots. Caudal fin regularly 

 crescent-shaped. 



29. Salmo gloverii. 



Salmo gloverii, Girard, Proc. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. 1851, p. 85 ; Harris, 

 ibid. 1858, p. 1.35. 



D. 14. A. 10. V. 10. 



Some Salmonoid from the upper affluent of the Union River, in 

 the State of Maine, insufiiciently described, the dentition of which 

 is unknoAvn. The maxillaries extend backwards to about the pos- 

 terior margin of the orbit. Caudal fin deeply emarginate. [The 

 adipose fin, in the male, is situated opposite the anterior margin of 

 the anal, whilst in the female it corresponds to the posterior margin 

 of the same fin.]* The scales are somewhat smaller than in S. se- 

 bago, but larger than in S. oqtiassa or S. erytlirogaster ; opercles and 

 back densely covered with black irregular spots. 



* We doubt very much the correctness of this observation.
