FISHES OF PENNSYLVANIA. 
Vil 


It is hoped that this report will stimulate investigation of the waters 
of the state with the result of bringing together collections to form the 
basis of a much more extensive and satisfactory account of the fishes of 
this great commonwealth. The author will gladly undertake the pre- 
paration of a final report provided he can secure the co-operation of col- 
lectors in various parts of the state, and particularly in localities wherein 
the fishes are comparatively little known.
