An amphibian of comparatively recent discovery is the Texas Blind Salamander {Typh- 

 lomolge rathbuni) which comeB from subterranean waters through the artesian well of the 

 United States Fisheries Bureau at San Marcos, Texas. It is four inches long, colorless, and 

 totally blind. Specimens have been kept in the Aquarium more than a year. 



The Brown Anemone (Metridium marainatum) is collected by the Aquarium in consider- 

 able numbers, being one of the species supplied to teachers for stocking small marine aquaria 

 in the public schools.
