provide a type that would agree perfectly with the descriptions of Luciw, in 
respect to origin of dorsal and all other particulars. The proper standing 
of the species Luciw is not yet satisfactorily determined.

Body compressed, tail moderately deep. Head nearly one fourth of the 
total length ; crown flattened. Snout short, nearly as long as the eye, blunt; 
chin steep. Mouth of moderate size, oblique; lower jaws longer, firmly 
united ; upper short, protractile. Teeth conical ; outer series strong, hooked; 
inner similar in shape to outer but very small; pharyngeal with a shoulder. 
Eye large, longer than the snout in small specimens, nearly as wide as the 
interorbital space. Dorsal rather large, originating about midway from snout 
to base of caudal. Anal little smaller than dorsal, tip and base extending a 
little farther backward than those of the latter. Pectorals small, hardly 
larger than the ventrals and reaching a trifle behind their bases. Caudal 
deep, convex. Scales large. 
Olivaceous, silvery on lower half of head and on belly, edges of scales 
darker. A blackish band from the lower jaw along the flank to the middle 
of the base of the caudal. A dark band from the lower edge of the caudal 
passes forward below the pedicel to each side of the base of the anal. A 
transverse band of dark color on the basal half of dorsal and anal, varying 
in distinctness. Tips of fins darkened. 
Florida. 
The possession of inner series of teeth on the jaws places this species in 
Fundulus, rather than in Lucania, the essential characteristic of which is the 
single series of teeth on each jaw.
