jaws, curved })iickward. Pseudobranchia? small; g'ill rakers on first 
arch 6+9, rather long and slender. Dorsal and anal of equal height, 
the longest ra^'s contained li times in head; caudal rather deeply 
notched, its length li in head; pectorals If in head; ventrals If. 
Supplemental appendage of ventral slender, its length 2| in the fin. 
Color in alcohol, body with numerous light spots about as large as 
pupil, ventral and anal fins edged anteriorly with bright yellow, upper 
surfaces of pectorals and ventrals dusky. 
Described from an individual about 200 millimeters long from Lake 
Chuzenji. Specimens in Lake Chuzenji are pale gray in life, the 
spots on the sides crimson, those on the back gra^nsh white; lower 
fins scarlet, dusky, shaded with whitish edge; in streams the colors 
are darker. 
This beautiful little charr is abundant in the mountain streams and 
lakes of Hondo and Hokkaido, It reaches but a small size, the largest 
specimens seen by us not exceeding 2 pounds. Our specimens are 
from Lake Chuzenji, near Nikko (introduced), Chishima, Nemuro, 
Ohata River at Aomoi'i and Kawagiri in Rikuchu. Numerous others 
from localities in Hokkaido are preserved in museums. 
The species is very close to Salvelinus malma of Kamchatka and the 
Aleutian region, diflfering in the longer mouth and larger spots, traits 
which are constant in the material at our disposal.
