A fine specimen of this species was taken in the Chickasawha at En- 
terprise. Another has since been sent me by Mr. Warner. 
'GENusS CHAANOBRYTTUS, Gill.

A single specimen of this was obtained at Enterprise. It has many 
of the characteristics assigned by Professor Jordan to Ch. viridis. This 
latter species is attributed by him to the region from Virginia to Florida. 
In the specimen which I caught the coloration is quite dark, being a 
reddish brown. Most of the scales have a dark spot in the center. This 
spot, on a few of the scales along the sides, is quite conspicuous. The 
fins are dark in color, the soft dorsal, especially behind, being marked 
with spots. The base of the anal is also obsoletely spotted. Tips of 
soft dorsal and anal in life bright red. Lower jaw and snout livid blue. 
The specimen agrees well with Girard’s Calliurus melanops. I thiuk it 
not unlikely that Ch. gulosus and viridis will turn out to be varieties of 
the same species.

,  Apomotis cyanellus, JORDAN, Bull. U. S. Geol. Surv. vol. iv, No. 2, 398. 
I obtained specimens of this widely distributed species from Catawba

GENUS LEPOMIS, Rafinesque. 
15. Lepomis pallidus (Mitchill) Gill & Jordan. (No. 27,457.)

Lepiopomis incisor, GOODE & BEAN, Proc. U. 8. Nat. Mus. 1879, 139. 
Numerous specimens of the above species were obtained in Catawba 
Creek at Artesia, Noxubee River at Macon, and in the Chickasawha at 
Enterprise. 
16. Lepomis obscurus (Ag.) Jordan. (No. 27,453.) 
Pomotis obscurus, AGASsIz, Amer. Journ. Sci. and Arts, 1864, 302.

Ohio Railroad.
