This is the most complete account of New Jersey fishes to-day, 
and though far from all one could wish has more features of 
value than Dr. Theodore Gill’s rather severe censure of 1873 
would imply. The work is only a list of the species with notes 
on their abundance, habits, ete., which in most cases was based 
on the author’s own observations and the rarer or unusual forms 
recorded in the collections of the Academy of Natural Sciences of 
Philadelphia, a number of which the present writer has since ex- 
amined himself. Many of the identifications were given to Dr.. 
Abbott by Cope. The work is unfortunate in the uncorrected 
proof.
