INIr. Coode-Hore, who was resident for several years on the 

 shores of Lake Tanganyika, brought home in 1889 a small collec- 

 tion of Snakes and Fishes. The specimens had greatly suffered 

 during the long voyage to England, but some of them were in a 

 sufficiently good state of preservation to be acquired for the 

 British Museum and to be described here. I have deferred au 

 account of them in the hope of seeing them supplemented by sub- 

 sequent collections ; but as it seems desirable to work them out 

 in comparison with those from Lake Xyasa and other parts of 

 Eastern Equatorial Africa, I will not allow the present occasion 

 to pass without giving an account of them. 



The discovery of two species of 31astaceinhelus, connecting the 

 Asiatic species with the West African, is only one of the interest- 

 ing facts which a more extended investigation of the Fish-fauna 

 of this remarkable lake is sure to reveal.
