n The common names of the fishes of the pike family, and of the pilce perches, with which they are con- 

 fused, are too numerous to be given here. As Weed, who gives many of them (Field Mus. Nat. Hist., 

 Zool. leaflet No. 0, 1927) remarks, "There are as many as 80 names for 1 fish and 7 fish for one name."
