Based primarily on collections made by Rrof. Jordan and a party of 
students from Butler University in 1877. This paper gives a summary 
of all that is certainly known in regard to the ichthyology of the seven 
hydrographic basins embraced in its scope, viz., Santee, Savannah, Alta- 
maha, Chattahoochee, Alabama, Tennessee, and Cumberland.

The principal alterations have been made in the ichthyological portion, 
which has been entirely re-cast, to include recent results and additions ; 
generic diagnoses are now substituted for the artificial keys. The publi- 
cation here of some of the new species, and of the genera Quassilabia

May be considered a new edition of Jordan & Copeland’s Check List

species enumerated are now 665, instead of 670, although upwards of 40
