of hard clay and gravel. Collections were made here on August 27, 

 1919. 



Station 50. — Plate V, Fig. 2. Galien River above bridge of 

 main road at the Warren Woods and upstream about a quarter 

 of a mile as far as the east bank was cleared. The east bank was 

 sandy. The stream at this station was about thirty feet wide on 

 the average and its depth mostly under four feet. The bottom 

 was mostly of firm, slippery clay and usually sloped abruptly 

 toward the middle of the stream. Collections were made here on 

 June I, 1919. 



Station JO. — GaHen River near the rock road bridge about a 

 half-mile northeast of the Warren Woods. The stream flows 

 through low, shrubby pasture land and was bordered with many 

 willows and much herbage along its margin. It was rather narrow, 

 averaging about twenty feet. The water was high, rapid, and 

 turbid on June 5, the time the station was visited. The bottom 

 was mostly of hard clay. Some pools and small sloughs were 

 close to the stream, none of which were found connected with the 

 river, but must have been at times of very high water. 



List of Species 



The most important facts concerning each species of fish 

 found in the Galien River and some of its tributaries are here given. 

 A number of species other than those found by the writer certainly 

 occur in the river. Small-mouthed black bass and wall-eyed pike 

 are reported from the stream, and both have been planted in it 

 near New Buffalo. None of the Siluridae were taken, but bullheads 

 are said to be occasionally caught. Eels, dogfish, and buffalo 

 fish are reported to be found in the river at times. A small 

 lamprey, Ichthyomyzon sp., four and a half inches long, was found 

 clinging to a rock in shallow, swift water at Station 30. The 

 small size and immature condition of the specimen makes its deter- 

 mination at present impossible.
