especially in the male; lower fins anteriorly margined with white. 

 Sides of body with round red spots ; back not marbled. Gill rakers 6 + 11 

 to 18, usually longer than in fontinalis, and in the adult more or less 

 curled. Cold lakes and mountain streams of central and northern Europe 

 and northeastern America, abundant in suitable waters and running into 

 many varieties. Some of the nominal species in Siberia may belong to 

 this type, but too little is known of them to permit their reference, 

 either to Salvelinus alpinus or to Salvelinus malma. (Eu. ) (alpinus, alpine.)

Represented in American waters by several forms, scarcely differen- 

 tiated from each other or from the parent type. - We provisionally recog- 

 nize the following, but do not know any positive character by which to 

 separate any of them from Salvelinus alpinus. 



Represented in the inlets of Boothia by the long-fmned

 erate size; snout elongate, pointed, with the lower jaw projecting beyond 

 the upper in adult examples. Teeth small. Maxillary elongate, narrow, 

 extending beyond the eye. Preopercle very short, with a very short lower 

 limb ; opercle and preopercle very conspicuously and deeply striated, the 

 striae radiating from the base of each. Fins much developed, the dorsal 

 much higher than long; pectoral very long, reaching more than halfway 

 to ventrals, which are also very long; adipose fin very small ; caudal well 

 forked. Lakes of Greenland and Boothia Felix. (Giinther.) (ala, wing;
