302 Notea on the 



10. liEPTOPS OLIVARIS =^, Rafinesque. 



(Mud-Cat.) 

 C, 14. Pilodictis oUvaris. B., 101. A., 334. 



The following is from a note kept by Dr. Wilder: " A large 

 cat-fish was taken on a set line two miles below Sheldrake, about 

 1855, by Alex. Merian." 



Mr. H. V. Kipp informs me that cat-fish are caught in the 

 northern end of the Lake, reaching a weight of 25 pounds. 



It is probable that these statements refer to this species, but 

 possibly to A. nigricans. 



Family VI. CATOSTOMIDJE. 



11. CATOSTO^US CATOSTOWEUS * Forster. 



(Long-nosed Sucker.) 



C, 17. C. longirostris. A., 320. B., 126. 



My search for this species was in vain. It is found in the 

 Adirondack region, and no doubt is a member of the Cayuga 

 Lake fauna. 



12. CATOSTOMUS TERES * Mltcliill, 



(Common White Sucker.) 

 A., 320. C, 18. 

 Catostomus commersoni. B., 129. 

 Very abundant through the entire Lake basin. 



13. ERIMYZON SUCETTA * I^acepede. 



(Chub Sucker.) 



A., 319. B., 133. 

 Erimyzon sucetta oblo7igus. C, 19. 



Very common about Cayuga and Montezuma. I know of 

 none taken near Ithaca. 



14. MOXOSTOIfIA MACROIiEPIDOTUM * liC Suenr. 



(Common Red Horse.) 

 A., 3i3. B., 140. C, 19. 



I have seen but one specimen of this species from the Lake. 

 Kather common at the northern end, so Mr. Kipp informs me.
