Xenotis megalotis, Raf. Long-eared Sunfish. 
This little species is not at all common in the State, 
but has been taken by us from the middle course of Pox 
R., from tributaries of the Illinois R., and from ponds in 
Union county and southern Illinois. 
Unfortunately, the three specimens examined had not 
lately taken food, and only a very imperfect notion of 
their usual aliment can be given. Corixa, Ephemeral
