SPECIES FOUND IN BOTH THE WABASH RIVER AND RIO GRANDE BASINS. 
A comparison of the fish faunas of two such important and widely separated river 
basins as the Wabash and the Rio Grande is not without interest. The total number 
of Ashes known from the Rio Grande basin is 80, while the number now known from 
the Wabash basin is 130. Of the 80 species from the Rio Grande basin 11 are brackish- 
water species, thus leaving only 69 true fresh- water species found in the Rio Grande 
basin, which is only about one-half as many as found in the Wabash basin. So far 
as known, only 23 species are common to both of these river basins. Of these there 
are 4 catfishes, 3 suckers, 4 minnows, and 5 sunfishes. Nearly all are fishes of lowland 
streams and ponds, and are species of wide distribution in the eastern and south- 
eastern United States.
