1863. F. W. Putnam. List of the fishes sent by the Museum to different institutions 



in exchange for other specimens, with annotations. <^Bull. Mus. Comp. 

 Zool., vol. i, No. 1, 2-16, 1863. 



In this paper are described 2 species supposed to be new. The types 

 of each were collected by Mr. Stolley in the Osage Kiver, Missouri. 

 They are A Iburn us lineolatus Agassiz MS., 1854, and Albumus zonatus 

 Agassiz MS., 1854: {=Xotropis zonatus). The first of these is unidenti- 

 fiable; it may be Notropis scylla. 



1864. Tjieodop.e Gill. A new species of Percopsis (Percopsis hammondii) from Kan- 



sas. <Proc. Ac. Nat. Sci. Phila. 1864, 151. 



In this note Dr. Gill describes Percopsis hammondii {=Pcrcopsis gut- 

 tattns), the specimen said to have been obtained in Kansas by Dr. W. A. 

 Hammond. 



1864. E. D. Cope. On a blind Silurid from Pennsylvania. <Troc. Ac. Nat. Sci. 

 Phila. 1864, 231-233. 



In the paper bearing this inadequate title Professor Cope describes 

 not only the blind catfish from Pennsylvania and a new darter from ISTew 

 Jersey, but anew darter (as Pcecilichthys mesceus = Boleosoma nit/rum) 

 from Platte River, near Fort Kearney, Nebr. The type was collected 

 by Dr. Hammond. 



1864a. Edward D. Cope. Partial catalogue of the cold-blooded Vertebrata of 

 Michigan. Part i. <Proc. Ac. Nat. Sci. Phila. 1864, 276-285. 



In this paper Professor Cope records 5 species of fishes from the Mis- 

 souri Basin, 4 of which he describes as new. All were collected by Dr. 

 W. A. Hammond. 



1865. Edwakd D. Cope. Partial catalogue of the cold-blooded Vertebrata of 

 Michigan. Part n. <Proc. Ac. Nat. Sci. Phila. 1865, 78-88. 



In this paper Professor Cope incorporates a " Note on fishes brought 

 from the Platte [Kansas] Paver, near Fort Eiley, by Dr. W. A. Ham- 

 mond." Twenty-four species are mentioned, three of which (Gas- 

 terosteus micropus, Fundulus sciadieus, and Ltpidosteus otarius) are 

 described as new. The localities assigned to some of these species seem 

 to be erroneous. Gila affinis certainly did not come from any Missouri 

 Basin locality, and the trout mentioned as Trutta leioisi probably came 

 from some point in the headwaters of the South Platte rather than
