FURTHER NOTES ON NEW JERSEY FISHES. 147 



Taken in the Rancocas Creek above New Lisbon, Burlington 

 county, May 12th, 1907. They were rather abundant in the 

 shallows where the water was more or less still and always 

 warmer than in the deeper courses of the creek. The cut-offs 

 and small bays, or coves, afford excellent places. If one should 

 move about in such situations in a small boat he would not fail 

 to find small schools oi this fish. When in the water they move 

 usually in concert about the little passages formed by the aquatic 

 vegetation. As seen from above, they appear quite inconspicu- 

 ous in the dark-stained water, only the dark and supralateral 

 pale streaks being at all noticeable. They are apparently more 

 disturbed by motions or movements, for while we remained still 

 they would swim rather slowly and lazily about. They seemed 

 to associate entirely with young Brimyzon. In coloration and 

 habits they agreed entirely with those described from May's 

 Landing. 



Mr. Henry Warrington secured it in the Rancocas Creek, near 

 Med ford, Burlington county, in January of 1899.
