Scomber. 



S. Scomber. Common Mackerel. 



Small shoals of mackerel are occasionally found 

 about the mouth of the Frith, in the summer and 

 autumn months. 



[S. Trachurns, Scad, Horse-mackerel, or stour- 

 mackerel, is said sometimes to have been found in 

 the Frith ; but I have not met with it.] 



ABDOMINALES. 



CoBITIS. 



C. barbatula. Loche. 



This appears to be rather an uncommon fish in 

 the English rivers ; but it is frequent in the 

 Water of Leith, and other rivers of Scotland in 

 general, 



Salmo. 



S. Salar. Salmon. 



This is occasionally taken in the Frith, during 

 July and August, the season of the fish's periodi- 

 cal visit to the sea. 



S. Trulta. Salmon Trout ; Bull Trout ; or Sea 

 Trout. 



This is very common, especially about the 

 mouths of the Esk and the Almond.
