The catalogue is a repetitiou of the names (without descriptions or remarks) of the 

 author's *' Natural History of the Fishes of Massachusetts." 



This compilation was also criticised (by Dr. D. H. Storer) in 1837 in "An Exam- 

 ination of the 'Catalogue of the Marine and Fresh- water Fishes of Massachusetts,' by 

 J. V. C. Smith, M. D.," contained in Professor Hitchcock's " Report on the Geology, 

 Mineralogy, &c., of Massachusetts. By D. Humphreys Storer, M. D." <^Bostou Jour- 

 nal of Natural History, . . . vol. I, pp. 347-365, pi. viii (May, 183G).

 Descrii3tions are given of 107 nominal species, 91 of which are salt- or brackish-

phreys Storer, M. D. . . . <^Reports on the Fishes, Reptiles, and Birds of Massa-

 half-title, — Fishes of Massachusetts, — pp. 1-202, pi. 1-3. 



The report on the fishes is the same as that published in the " Boston Journal of 

 Natural History," but (1) an entirely different introduction is added, (2) the supple- 

 mentary observations, on '^ Ca7'charias ohscurus^^ (B. J., Ill, 558) are omitted, and (3) 

 supplementary observations are added (pp. 405-409) on several species. 



The plates are apparently printed from the same lithographic stones.

739 nominal species from all North America (including the West Indies) are de- 

 scribed. The descriptions, however, are mostly inaptly compiled and insufficient.

 A nominal list of 140 species (23 of which are fresh-water species), representing 90 

 genera, is given; it is little trustworthy.
