25. Salnio salar Linn. Salmon. 



North Atlantic, ascending rivers in Northern Europe 

 and America. 



On the western Atlantic side extended, by the efforts 

 of the United States Fish Commission, as far south 

 as the Susquehanna Eiver. The young of this, or 

 the land-locked form next to he mentioned, Lave beeu 

 found in abundance even in North Carolina, where 

 the Commission introduced the species.

Land-locked Salmon. 

 Saint Croix Eiver and lakes of Maine. Extensively in- 

 troduced into other lakes and into streams south- 

 ward.

27. Salmo gairdaieri Eich. Gairdner's Trout ; Steel-head; 



Hard-head; Salmon Trout; Ah-shut; Edg-e- 

 cumbe Trout. 



Sacramento Eiver and northward at least to Kodiak, 

 Alaska. 



A very large species, reaching 20 pounds in weight. 

 Gravid females were seen at Sitka in June. In my 

 opinion this and the next species are identical, but, 

 as I cannot now publish my reasons for this belief, I 

 continue for the present to use both names.
