10. Minnilus diplemius (Raf.) Hay. 
Abundant. 
11. Minnilus cornutus (Mitchill) Jordan & Gilb. 
Not rare. 
12. Hemitremia vittata Cope. 
Several specimens, which we refer with some doubt to this species, 
were taken in Wolf Creek and the Clear Fork. The scales are larger 
than in Cope’s type and the teeth are in normal number (4-4), not 4-5 
or 5-5 as stated by Professor Cope. 
The following characters are shown by our specimens: 
Olivaceous, the scales above punctate with black; sides with a narrow 
and very distinct black lateral band, narrower than the eye, extending 
from snout to base of caudal, where it ends in a distinct oblong black 
spot; caudal, dull reddish; other fins plain. Head 4, depth 33, A. 7, 
Lat. 1. about 32, the exact number not easily counted. Tubes of lateral 
line little developed. Dorsal inserted a little before ventrals, slightly 
nearer snout than base of caudal; mouth very small, terminal. Snout 
short and blunt; head thick, broad above; pectorals not reaching ven- 
trals, the latter slightly beyond front of anal; scales before dorsal, 
large. ‘The largest specimens seen were scarcely two inches long. The 
young have the lateral band faint or wanting. 
13. Rhinichthys obtusus Agassiz. 
Common in cold clear streams. 
14. Ambloplites rupestris (Raf.) Gill. 
15. Lepomis megalotis Rafinesque. 
16. Lepomis macrochirus Rafinesque. 
17. Lepomis cyanellus Rafinesque. 
18. Micropterus dolomiei La Cépede. 
19. Alvordius aspro Cope and Jordan, 
In the Clear Fork. 
20. Diplesium blennioides (Raf.) Jor. 
In the river channel. The specimen taken was very slender, without 
red or orange markings in life. 
21. Boleosoma susane, sp. nov. 
Head, 44; depth, 63. D.VIII,100r11. A.J,8. Lat.1.45. Length 
of largest specimen, 2 inches. 
General form and appearance of Boleosoma nigrum, but with the body 
slenderer, the fius smaller, and the head entirely naked. 
Body very slender, fusiform, little compressed, the back not much 
elevated. Head short and small. Mouth small, inferior, formed as in 
other species of the genus. Snout short, bluntly decurved. Eye rather 
large, a little longer than snout, the maxillary extending to below front
