Gasterosteus Pungitius ? L. 



Sub-genus Gasterosteus. Cuv. Reg. An. ii. p. 300. 



Great numbers of small fish of this genus were observed, in the spring of 1820, 

 in a small pond in the neighbourhood of Cumberland-House. We are inclined to 

 refer them to the above-mentioned species, but the description of them not having 

 been preserved, we are unable to do so with certainty. Specimens of them, which 

 were put in spirits, were destroyed on their way home.
