Pomoxys annularis Raf. 

 Gichla storeria Kirtland. 

 Pomoxys storerius, inter medius^ ;protacanthus, and hrevicauda Gill. 



Description not entirely accurate, but certainly sufficient for identifi- 

 cation. This fish is now, as in Rafiuesque's time, abundant at the Falls 

 of the Ohio, where it is now called " Bachelor". Throughout Kentucky 

 it is known as the "New Light", and sometimes as "Campbellite". 

 The characters assumed to distinguish intermedius, protacanthus, etc., are 

 entirely within the bounds of individual variation.
