46 REPORT OF NEW JERSEY STATE MUSEUM. 
This valuable paper is a re-examination of the ground gone 
over by Baird in 1854, and adds much to our knowledge of the 
fishes of that most interesting region. Although some of Baird’s 
species were not found, others are recorded for the first time 
from within the limits of the state. The figures and notes on 
young fishes are of special interest, some of these not having 
been previously described.

1890. Descriptive Catalogue of the Vertebrates of New Jersey. <Rep. Geol. 
Surv., II, pt. 2, Min. Bot. Zodl., 1890, pp. 1-824, Fishes, pp. 657-776. 
A compiled descriptive account of each species, mostly from 
Drs. Jordan and Gilbert’s ‘Synopsis,’ which may have reference 
to material collected anywhere except within our limits, with 
quoted notes from Dr. Abbott’s paper of 1869. Many species are 
included purely on account of their known range along Atlantic 
shores, though never as yet having been definitely recorded from 
within the state’s limits. The adjustment of some of Dr. 
Abbott’s references is also at times at variance with what 1s now 
known of the species.

This contains a list of 61 species made by the writer while 
attached to the marine Biological Laboratory of the University 
of Pennsylvania, at Sea Isle City. All the fish taken at the 
laboratory from June 25th to September 1st were examined and 
reported on.
