given by Milner apparently involves both species. C. couesii is a wbitefish taken in Chief Moun- 

 tain Lake at the head of the Saskatchewan River. 



Jordan, D. S., 1875. — A description, accompanied by a crude figure, is given of Argyrosomus 

 sisco from Lake Tippecanoe, Kosciusko County, Ind. This species is compared with a fish that 

 the author calls A. hoyi, a name based not on the specimens of Gill and Hoy but on another fish 

 sent by Hoy to Jordan. This fish probably was the Lake Michigan representative of zenithicus, 

 which Jordan, in his subsequent writings, seems to have had in mind as hoyi. This paper was 

 abstracted in the same year in the American Naturalist. 



Jordan, D. S., 1878. — Seven species and four possible varieties of whitefishes are mentioned 

 on pages 274 to 276. The interest of this work lies in the subgeneric divisions, which are outlined 

 on pages 360 to 362. Prosopium is published from Milner's manuscript as a generic designation 

 for whitefishes of the quadr Hater alia type. 



Bean, T. H., 1881a. — Coregonus laurettse is described as a new species on the basis of four 

 specimens taken at Point Barrow and one at Port Clarence, Alaska. 



Jordan, D. S., and C. H. Gilbert, 1882. — This account condenses the species that previously 

 had been described for North America to the following: Coregonus couesi (Milner), C. williamsoni 

 (Girard), C. quadr Hater alis (Richardson), C. clupeiformis (Mitchill), C . labradoricus (Richardson), 

 C. hoyi (Jordan), C. artedi (LeSueur), C. nigripinnis (Gill), C. tullibee (Richardson). In addition 

 to these, C. kennicotti, from Fort Good Hope, British America, and Yukon River, Alaska, is included 

 from Milner's manuscript; and C. merki (Giinther), from the Bering Sea to the north shore of 

 Siberia, is added to the North American fauna. 



Bean, T. H., 1884a. — Coregonus nelsonii is described as a new species. It is said to occur only 

 in Alaska from the Bristol Bay region northward. The type is from Nulato. 



Bean, T. H., 1888. — Coregonus pusillus was referred to by the author in Proceedings, United 

 States National Museum, volume 4, 1881, page 256, as an unnamed variety of C. merki and is 

 described from a specimen collected in Putnam or Kuwuk River, Alaska. 



Bollman, Charles H., 1889. — Bisselli. from Rawson and Howard Lakes, Mich., is described as 

 a new subspecies of Coregonus tullibee. 



Jordan, D. S., 1891. — Cismontanus, from the Madison River, Mont., is described as a new 

 subspecies of Coregonus williamsoni. Two figures accompany the text. 



Eigenmann, C. H., and R. S. Eigenmann, 1892.— A description is given of Coregonus coulterii 

 based on over 100 specimens from Kicking Horse River, Field, British Columbia. 



Smith, H. M., 1894. — Coregonus osmeriformis is described and figured from Seneca and Skanea- 

 teles Lakes, N. Y., and Coregonus prognathus from Lake Ontario off Wilson, N. Y. The synonomy 

 of hoyi is discussed, and a figure and description obviously based on the two fish sent by Hoy are 

 added. 



Evermann, B. W., and H. M. Smith, 1896. — No new species are described but the accounts 

 given in this publication are more detailed than in any previous or subsequent publication. The 

 previously described forms for North America are reduced to 20 species and subspecies: Coregonus 

 coulterii, C. williamsoni, C. williamsoni cismontanus, C. kennicotti, C. richardsonii, C. quadri- 

 lateralis, C. clupeiformis, C. nelsonii, C. labradoricus, Argyrosomus osmeriformis, A. artedi, A. artedi 

 sisco, A. hoyi, A. pusillus, A. lucidus, A. laurettse, A. prognathus, A. nigripinnis, A. tullibee, and 

 A. tullibee bisselli. All but C. richardsonii, A. artedi sisco, and A. tullibee bisselli are illustrated by 

 pen drawings. 



Jordan, D. S., and B. W. Evermann, 1896. — All the known species of the lake herrings and 

 whitefishes, together with their synonomy, are listed under two genera — Coregonus subgenera 

 Coregonus and Prosopium, and Argyrosomus subgenera Argyrosomus and Allosomus. The species 

 of Prosopium are coulterii, williamsoni, w. cismontanus, kennicotti, richardsonii, and quadr Hater alis; 

 the species of Coregonus are clupeiformis, nelsonii, and labradoricus; the species of Argyrosomus 

 are osmeriformis, artedi, a. sisco, hoyi, pusillus, lucidus, laurettse, prognathus, and nigripinnis; and 

 of Allosomus the species are tullibee and t. bisselR. 



Scofield, N. B., 1899. — Argyrosomus alascanus (Scofield) from Point Hope and Grantley Harbor, 

 Alaska, is published as a new species from Scofield's manuscript, which appeared subsequently 

 in D. S. Jordan, "The fur seals and fur-seal islands of the North Pacific Ocean," part 3, 1899.
