plete, with stiff prickles from below the first dorsal spine to below the 
last ray; prickles below the lateral line more restricted. Dorsals con- 
nected by a low membrane, the soft rays much higher than the spines,

A New Species of Eutznia from Western Pennsylvania. 
—A collection of alcoholic specimens from near Franklin, Venango 
County, Pennsylvania, on the Alleghany River, sent me by Miss Anna 
M. Brown, contains the following species: Bufo lentiginosus ameri- 
canus; Rana virescens virescens ; Plethodon glutinosus ; Plethodon cin- 
ereus dorsalis; Ophibolus doliatus triangulus; and a Eutænia, which 
appears to represent a specific form which I have not previously seen. 
The single specimen is small, but not young, and it belongs to the 
group of which E. sirtalis and E. leptocephala are members. It resem- 
bles both these species, but differs in important particulars. The 
labial plates are six above and eight below, instead of seven above and 
ten below. The head is not distinct from the neck, resembling in this 
respect the genus Tropidoclonium. The parietal scuta are convex in 
outline, and not contracted posteriorly. The headplates are otherwise 
as in those species ; including oculars, 4; temporals, 4; and post-gen- 
eials longer than pregeneials. Scales in nineteen series, all keel
