ing rays, only latter are without small outer ones. Anal mem- 
branes transparent slaty-gray. Pectoral translucent, base be- 
coming dull orange and above largely dusky, also outer margin. 
Upper margin of pectoral adipose-like, becoming dark on distal 
portion. Ventral similar in color, only inner margin paler. In 
preorbital region 3 large laterally-directed tubercles. Lower 
lateral surface of caudal peduncle and posterosupraanal region 
with a narrow, roughened or slightly tubercular area, largely 
due to corrugated edges of scales. This extends back to caudal 
fin. Tubercles all pale brownish. Length 7 inches. This ex- 
ample taken in a clear stream of running water in woodland, a 
tributary of the Pensauken Creek near Pensauken, Burlington 
county, April 28th, 1907. C. J. Hunt and H. W. Fowler. 
Color in life of a young example in the wittatus stage. Back 
dusky medianly, this forming into a black line anteriorly, which 
extends to eye, then along upper surface of snout to its tip, where 
it also joins its fellow, and this a narrow median streak of pale 
ground-color extends from upper surface of snout to dorsal, 
though broader on cranium. Ground-color of upper surface of 
body a ruddy terra-cotta tint. It occurs on each side of snout 
above dark lateral band. From tip of snout to base of caudal 
a jet-black lateral band, with a slight bluish tinge. Lower sur- 
face of body bright silvery-white. Dorsal dusky, with a warm 
tinge, or rather tinted with bright terra-cotta. Caudal deep red- 
dish-terra-cotta color. Other fins transparent whitish. Lower 
surface of caudal peduncle translucent. Iris silvery-white, with 
a slightly ruddy tinge above. Length about 2 inches. Very 
abundant May 12th, 1907, in the Rancocas Creek above New Lis- 
bon, in Burlington county. The warm color of the back is in 
agreement with the examples found in the Great Ege Harbor 
River, and appears different from that of those taken in the 
Delaware. 
Young were very abundant in the pond at Turnersville, in the 
south branch of Big Timber Creek, in Gloucester county, May 
19th, 1907. Though less abundant than Notropis chalybeus, they 
were more so than Abramis. They were pale, like Bristol and 
Trenton examples, not reddish on their backs, and have the dark
