CRAYFISHES. 373 



I was told in Great Barringtbn that these animals were introduced 10-15 years 

 ago into Lake Buel, on the borders of the neighboring towns of Monterey and 

 New Marlborough, by anglers who were using them as fish-bait, that 'they are 

 now exceedingly numerous in Lake Buel and have been probably transferred 

 thence to neighboring ponds by boys. 



C. affinis has been introduced into Europe as a piscicultural experiment in 

 acclimatization at the Station Agricole at Fecamp, France, ^ and elsewhere. 



This species has also been found of late in Central Park Lake, New York 

 City, and in Prospect Park Lake, Brooklyn; it has also been reported as intro- 

 duced into a lake in East Hampton, Middlesex Co., Conn. (Bull. N. Y. Zool. 

 Soc, Nov. 1912, 16, p. 924).
