ON A COLLECTION OF FISHES MADE IN KOREA, BY 

 PIERRE LOUIS JOLTY, WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF NEW 

 SPECIES. 



By David Starr Jordan and Edwin Chapin Starks,

In 1885, the late Mr. Pierre Louis Jouy, ttien an assistant to the 

 United States National Museum, visited Korea from Japan, making 

 a considerable collection of fishes for the United States National 

 Museum. We give in this paper a list of the species contained in that 

 collection and those obtained by Ensign J. B. Bernadou, U. S. N., in 

 the vicinity of Chemulpo, where he collected from September, 1884, 

 till April, 1885, with descriptions of those new to science. It is 

 evident that the marine fauna of Korea is essentially that of Japan, 

 while that of the rivers is different as to species, and is as yet practically 

 unknown. The plates accompanying this paper are drawn by Mrs. 

 Chloe Lesley Starks. For the opportunity of studying the collection 

 we are indebted to the courtesy of Mr. Richard Rathbun, Assistant 

 Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution.

Apparently the name Sardinella was first used for a species, prop- 

 erly referable to the genus later called Sardinia hy Poey. The name 

 Clnpanodon should, in our present view, be restricted to the first 

 species named under it, in which case it is equivalent to Conosirus of 

 Jordan and Snyder.
