The author discusses the characters which have been used for the 
distinction of the numerous forms of Coregonus , and expresses the 
opinion that, as concerns the lakes of Switzerland, there exist a number 
of species greater than that hitherto admitted. He uses, besides other 
characters, that taken from the number of gill-rakers, and distinguishes 
the following forms as new : —
