1 Notrojns nocomia Jordan & Gilbert, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. 1885. Rio Comal, Texas. 



- Notropis phenacohina Forbes, Bull. Ills. Lab, Nat. Hist., 1885, l.»7. Peoria, Ills. 



^ Notropis comalis Jordan & Gilbert, Proc. U. S.Nat. Mus., 1885. Rio Comal, Texas. 



* Phoiogenis piptoJepis Cope. Cope's description is repeated in the Synopsis, ]>. 183, 

 under the erroneous name of Cliola zonata (Ag.). Agassiz's species is a very different 

 one, allied to N. coccogeriis. 



^Cliola topcTca Gilbert, Bull. Washburn, Lab. Nat. Hi.st. Kas., 1884, I, 13; descrip- 

 tion reproduced, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 1884. Western Iowa and Kansas. The male 

 of this species is bright red in life. 



^Notropis hoops Gilbert, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 1884,201. Indiana to Missouri. 



^ Alburnops blennius Girard, Proc. Ac. Nat. Sci. Phila., 1856, 194. This species closely 

 resembles N. illecehroaua, but its suborbital bones are very much broader than in the 

 latter species, and its anterior profile is more decurved. One of Girard's types has the 

 teeth 1, 4-4, 0. Arkansas River at Fort Smith.

 60, 1877. Great Lakes aud streams eastward as far south as the Susquehanna. South- 

 ward (Maryland to Georgia) it is replaced by the subspecies amanis, which, as stated 

 in the text, differs only in having tbe teeth 1, 4-4, or 1, instead of 2, 4-4, 2 or 1, as 

 in the typical hiidsonina. Alhurvops aaludanus Jordan & Brayton, aud Hudsonius 

 euryopa Bean seem to be simply color variations of amariia. llutihis storerianiis Kiit- 

 land has been incorrectly identified with N. amartia, it being a specita of Hyhojisis, 

 { = Ceratichthija lucena Jordan). 



^Moniana leonina, complanata, and frigida Girard. Of these nominal species 1 have 

 found the tyjies of M. frigida only. These seem to represent a species distinct from 

 N. lutrenais, having the caudal peduncle more elongate, and 37 scales in the lateral 

 line.
