DR. GUNTHER ON THE FISHES OF CENTRAL AMERICA. 385 



America preceding this Memoir, I at once proceed to give a list of all the species known 

 to exist ui these comitries. There are comparatively few which I do not know from 

 autopsy; their names are printed in italics. An asterisk (*) marks those which are 

 described or remarked upon. The second column contains chiefly the names of the 

 localities where they have been found within the limits of Central America. The 

 localities of species occurring on both sides of the Isthmus are printed in italics ; of 

 these I shall treat again subsequently. Finally, the letter M signifies that a species is 

 maiine, B that it is known from brackish, and F that it is from fresh water.
