94 ■^'^gli^g Travels in Norway. 



weight and discovered a like quantity of grass-moths, 

 caked together and sprinkled with the silvery powder of 

 their wings. 



I have met with two varieties of the adult bull-trout, 

 both precisely similar in all respects except as to their 

 marking. 



The one variety has very few spots below the medial 

 line, and all the spots are rather far apart ; the other is 

 more thickly spotted, and the pattern extends a couple 

 of inches or so below the medial line. 



The two varieties appeal to the eye at once, that with 

 few markings being the handsomer fish of the two, but 

 they are both bull-trout. 



In the adult bull-trout it is frequently impos- 

 sible to recognize any pink or orange marking at the 

 edge or tip of the adipose fin, but in many cases the 

 colour can be readily distinguished if the fin be allowed 

 to dry. 



I have only upon rare occasions met the kelt of these 

 species after the middle of June, so they probably drop 

 down with the break-up of the winter ice. 



The annexed drawings of the bull-trout I took from 

 Norwegian fish.
