the lower jaw more included, the body more slender, the lateral line less 

 developed, the dorsal fin more posterior, and the anal rays more numer- 

 ous. It was found in considerable abundance in the St. Johns Eiver, near 

 Welaka, Florida, (welaka, from the type locality.)

Head 4; depth 4. D. 8; A. 8; scales 6-31-2 ; teeth 4-4. Body rather 

 robust, back considerably elevated, snout blunt, mouth small and nearly 

 horizontal. Snout short, about f- diameter of eye. Preorbital bone 

 slightly longer than broad. Eye moderate, 3 in head. Lateral line com- 

 plete, or nearly so; about 12 scales in a series before dorsal fin. Dorsal 

 fin slightly nearer tip of snout than base of caudal; pectorals reaching 

 ventrals; ventrals reaching anal. Color light olivaceous, a faint silvery 

 lateral baud; no dark lateral band or black caudal spot. This species 

 belongs to the ^V. Mennius type. It is a smaller species, lighter in color, 

 and has fewer scales in the lateral line. Potean River, Arkansas.

Head 4; depth 4^; eye 4; snout 4. D. 7; A. 9; scales 7-39-3, about 15 

 before the dorsal. General form much like that of Hybognalhus; body 

 only moderately compressed, dorsal and ventral outlines slightly arched; 

 head rather small, pointed; mouth small, a little oblique, the maxillary 

 scarcely reaching anterior border of orbit, lower jaw slightly included; 

 snout eqnal to eye; eye in axis of body. Fins all rather small; origin of 

 dorsal slightly behind vertical at insertion of ventrals; free edge of dorsal 

 fin somewhat concave, the anterior rays about equal to length of head; 

 pectoral short, slightly falcate, the longest rays about 1* in head; ventrals 

 shorter than pectoral, barely reaching vent; anal similar to dorsal, the 

 rays shorter; caudal widely forked, the middle rays 2| in the outer, the 

 lobes as long as head, the lower lobe slightly longer than the upper. 

 Scales moderately imbricated, the exposed portions not deeper than long; 

 lateral line complete, somewhat decurved. Teeth 2, 4-4, 2 or 1, rather 

 weak, hooked, and with small grinding surface. Intestine short; peri- 

 toneum silvery. General color light straw; middle of side with a broad, 

 well-defined silvery band from upper end of gill opening to middle of
