During the period from August 18 to September 9, 1891, Prof. Kirsch again col- 

 lected fishes in Kentucky and Tennessee waters, this time from the southern tributa- 

 ries of the Cumberland between Nashville, Term., and the crossing of the Cincinnati 

 Southern Railroad at Burnside, Ky. 



In the summer of 1890 Mr. Albert Jefferson Woolman, a former student of the 

 writer at the Indiana State Normal School, and later of Dr. Jordan's at Indiana 

 University, from which institution he had just graduated, examined many of the streams 

 of Kentucky in the interests of the United States Fish Commission. He was assisted 

 by Hiram W. Monical, of Brooklyn, Ind., and Charles O. Chambers, of Van Wert, Ohio, 

 also students in the University of Indiana. The field work began July 23 and ended 

 September 10. Mr. Monical assisted from July 2^5 to August 13 and Mr. Chambers 

 from August 13 to September 10. 



In September and October, 1893, the writer examined many streams and springs 

 in east Tennessee in the interests of the fish-cultural work of the United States 

 Fish Commission. In that work he was assisted by the late Dr. Josiah T. Scovell, of 

 Terre Haute, Ind., and Dr. Revere R. Gurley, scientific assistant. United States Fish 

 Commission. The work began at Knoxville September 27 and ended at Cumberland 

 Gap October 17. Considerable collections of fishes were made, which have only recently 

 been reported on by Evermann and Hildebrand.'^ 



In May, 1898, the writer spent several days at Louisville, Ky., studying the 

 Ohio shad and at the same time making collections of the other species of food fishes 

 then foimd at the Falls of the Ohio. These collections were reported on by the author 

 in 1902. Little or no ichthyological work of a faunistic character has been done in 

 Kentucky and Tennessee since this work in 1898.
