Notemigonus ischanus, Jordan, Check List Fishes Fresh W., N. A. p. 155. 
A specimen eight inches in length with bright red dorsal, caudal and 
anal fins.

Fine specimens of a species distinct from those of any other country 
from near Bayport, West Florida, agree in most of the characters cited by 
the above named authors. Their type was a young fish I suppose, in 
which the helmet had no such development as in my specimens; its 
beards are also rather longer.
