NOTES ON A S:\L\LL COLLECTION OF FISHES FR0:M 

 IL\MERUN. WEST AFRICA 



By Carl L. Hubbs 



In 1907-8 ]Mr. George Schwab made a miscellaneous col- 

 lection of animals for the Museum of Zoology at Efulan (or Efulen), 

 Kribi, Kamerun, West Africa: among these are eighteen fishes, 

 representing the ten species Hsted below. All but one of these 

 {Mastacemhelus goro) have been obtained at the same locaUty by 

 Mr. G. L. Bates, whose collections Dr. Boulenger has already 

 recorded. 



1. Marcusenius hatesii Boulenger. — Two topotv-pes. 



2. Barhns taeniiirus Boulenger. — A single specimen of this 

 very distinctively colored Barbus. originally described from 

 Efulan. 



3. Labeo annectens Boulenger. — Two adults, likewise topot^-pic. 



4. Clarias walkeri Giinther. — Two specimens, provisionally 

 referred to this species (which apparently- is not sharply distin- 

 guished from numerous others of the laa-keps group), differ from 

 Boulenger's description only in the somewhat shorter maxillary 

 barbels, which, however, are considerably longer than the head.
