184- The 3\(amral Hiflory 
by a winding impulfe of its body, without the help of any other 
fins but the finnulce at the tail, by which it fleers its courfe ; and 
thus far-it agrees with the Lamfetra fluviatilk. 
28, But though they agree in fome particulars, they differ in 
as many, our Fride being ftreaked from the top of its back down 
to the afore- mentioned line at the bottom of its belly, with lines 
of a diftinft colour from the refl of its body, like the Prickji ma- 
rina of Aldrovandu^ \ whereof the Lamfetra is not faid to have 
any: Befide the two pnnuU of the Lamfetra^ whereof one | 
flands on the top of its tail^ and the other a little higher on the ' 
back^ fome fpacc interceding ; the Pride has another underneath 
its tail, joyning with the other from above at the tip, making 
the whole tail to end like the head of z fpear. Moreover, the j 
eyes of the Pride are very obfcure, and not fuch plain round 
ones as are given the Lampetra^ not only in the defcription but 
Cut of Rondektiu6 ; And though it have a hole in its head^ yet it j 
ftands not as Rondeletiu^ defcribes it in the Lampetra^ juft in the | 
middle between the eyes^ but more forward in the extremity o0 j 
ththead^ near the upper lip ; all which may plainly be feen Tab, 
I o. Fig, 6, and 7. Whence 'tis eafie to conclude, that either this 
Fijb has not been defcribed at all, or fo very meanly, that there 
was almofta neceffity of giving another, either of which I fup- 
pofe will excufe this attempt. 
29. Befide the Pr/'^/e which we think undefcribed, we have 
another fort of Fijh plentiful in the Cherwell (fcarce ever found 
in Ifis but below the place where the Rivers joyn) that is more 
certainly fo ; and that a FiJh of the fquammom kind , which | 
they call a Finfcale, fbm what like a Roach^ only the belly fins^ and Ji 
the finglco/zeatthe ex// of the excrement, and thofe at the tail 
are much redder then thofe of a Roach \ it has alfo a full black eyt^ 
incompaffed with a yellovc iris^ whereas that of a Roch is red ; it 
is alfo a much deeper and thinner FiJ})^ but yet neither fo deep or 
thin as a Bream ; from which alfo it differs not only in the rednefl 
of its fins^ but in that the finglefin placed next the exit of its ex- . I 
crement, is not continued to the tail as it is in the Bream : Its fins 
atthe^i/Z^aremuchTJ^/'i/er than the refl, and that upon the back 
of a dirty bluijb colour : its fcales^ efpecially near the back, are 
of z greenijh jellovp colour, on which from the g/Z/y to the tail
