This species is abundant in all the tributaries of the 

 Etowah, Oostanaula, and Coosa Rivers. Comparison with 

 northern specimens fails to show any difference of any sort. 

 This is known to the fishermen as Craicl-a-botlom and Hog- 

 molly. The latter appellation is more usually applied to 

 Catostomns nigricans, and is apparently a corruption of 

 " Hosr-mullet." 



Percina carbonaria Girard, from Texas, differs in several respects from 

 my specimens of this widely diffused species.
