XVII.—Iilustrations of the Fossil Fishes of the Devonian Rocks of 
Canada. Part III, Supplementary Notes. 
By J. F. WHITEAVES. 
(Read May 15th, 1907.) 
As its title implies, this communication is intended as a supplement 
or appendix to a paper that was published, in two parts, in the Trans- 
actions of this Society for 1886 and 1888, volumes IV and VI. 
The descriptions and illustrations in both parts of that paper were 
based upon specimens collected at Scaumenac Bay and Campbell- 
ton, by Dr. R. W. Ells, Mr. T. C. Weston, and Dr. A. H. Foord, in 
1880, 1881 and 1882, all of which are in the Museum of the Geological 
Survey of Canada. ‘These specimens were carefully examined and 
studied by Dr. A. Smith Woodward in the summer of 1890. 
Since the year 1882, large collections of the fossil fishes of these 
two localities were made by Mr. Jex, for Mr. R. F. Damon, of Wey- 
mouth (in 1888—1892), and selections from these collections have been 
acquired for the Geological Department of the British Museum (Nat. 
Hist.), and for the Royal Scottish Museum at Edinburgh. The speci- 
mens now in the British Museum have been studied by Dr. A. Smith 
Woodward, and those in the Edinburgh Museum by Dr. R. H. Traquair, 
who have published several important papers upon the material avail- 
able to each (in the Geological Magazine and elsewhere), in which five 
new genera and ten new species are described and illustrated. 
In 1901 and 1902, additional collections of the fossil fishes of Scau- 
menac Bay were made by Professor W. Patten (of Dartmouth College, 
Hanover, N.H.), who published a paper in 1904 entitled “ New Facts 
Concerning Botiriolepis,” in which a “ reconstruction,” a “ median sec- 
tion,” and other new drawings of various parts of the Canadian species 
are given. The specimens of Bothriolepis in the Museum of the 
Geological Survey of Canada, had previously been studied by Professor 
Patten in 1903. 
The object of the present communication is to bring the two 
previous parts of this paper more up-to-date by supplementing them 
with a revised list of all the genera and species of fossil fishes from 
Scaumenac Bay that have been described up to 1907, and with a similar 
list of those from Campbellton. Both lists will contain full references, 
and copies of the original descriptions of most of those genera and
