Habitat: United States, west of the Alleghany Mountains, from the 
Great Lakes to Georgia, Kansas, and the Kio Grande River. 
Etymology : Kvavot r, dark blue. 
The synonomy of cyanellus as given above agrees with that given 
by McKay and others, except that I have included Calliurus murinus 
Girard as a full synonym. 
13. LEPOMIS ISCHYRUS. 
Lepiopomus ischyrus Jordan and Nelson, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus. x, 25, 1877 (Illinois 
River). 
Apomotis phenax Cope & Jordan, Bull. U. S. Nat. Mus., x, 26, 1877 (Beaseley’s 
Point, N. J.). 
Lepomis phenax McKay, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. 1881, 88. 
Habitat: Streams of Illinois. 
Etymology: 7 robust. 
I have examined the types of Apomotis phenax and of Lepomis ischy- 
rus and have come to the conclusion that the two are identical. They 
agree closely in technical characters, differing only in features which 
may be due to size or to the condition of the specimens. 
The description in the analysis is drawn from the types of phenax . 
The following notes are taken from the type of Lepomis ischyrus Jordan 
& Kelson, kindly sent to me by Dr. S. A. Forbes:
