CLAKIAS. 299 



This species was first discovered by Mr. Spire, tax-collector to the Uganda 

 Protectorate, early in 1905, in a pond two hours to the east of Gondokoro, and a 

 specimen was sent to me for the British Museum by my friend Dr. F. Werner*. 

 Shortly after, Mr. E. Degen rediscovered the same fish in Lake Victoria, bringing 

 home six specimens from Bunjako (5-14.11.05), Buganga (15-17.11.05), and Munyonyo 

 (18.8.05). I have also examined ten specimens from the Budclu (west) coast of Lake 

 Victoria, forming part of a collection made by Mr. M. Simon in 1906. 



* When describing the fish I was under the impression that it formed part of his own collection, a mistake 

 which he has asked me to rectify.
