Glut Herring. Pomolohus cyanonoton (Storer). 

 (Upper figure male, lower female.) 



Distinguished from our other species by the black peritoneum. 

 It is closer to the alewife but differs in the more elongate body, 

 lower fins, smaller eye and darker back. 



I have no examples. It appears on the coast later than the 

 alewife and is less valuable. Alosa cyanonoton Storer is evi- 

 dently the first name available for this species, as Clupea cesiivalis 

 Mitchill =■ C. mediocris Mitchill according to Dr. Bean.
