Long Finned Anchovy. 
Family ANGUILLIDE. 
Anguilla chrisypa Rafinesque. 
Eel. 
In Mantua creek, near Mantua, small eels were found in 
abundance up to 6 inches in length. They frequent the creek and 
all the cut-offs, especially the latter about tide-water, which are 
more or less choked up with debris. All are more or less of the 
uniform olive-color above and paler below. ‘They do not appear 
in special numbers in a locality, but are evenly distributed. When 
a pile of debris is hauled out on shore they immediately attempt 
to retreat beneath, by poking about. April 8th, 1906. S. H. 
Hamilton and H. W. Fowler. | 
Small ones were found in the streams near Dennisville, in 
Cape May County, during September of 1906.
