HOLLAND, Editor Published by the Authority of the Board of Trustees of the Carnegie Institute July, 1925-ApRiL, 1926 CARNEGIE INSTITUTE PRESS PITTSBURGH FOREWORD In sending forth the Sixteenth Volume of the Annals of the Carnegie Museum the Editor wishes to express his deep appreciation of the support and kind consideration which he has received from his suc- cessor, the present Director of the Carnegie Museum, Dr. Douglas Stewart, and from the various authors, whose contributions to science are here published. The volume deals with what was and with what is, with the dead and the living. It contains descriptions and illustrations of three hitherto unknown fossil mammals; of three fossil birds from the Eocene, when bird-life was different from what it is today; and of a hawk from the Miocene, when conditions were more like those of the present. It gives a rather full account of a remarkable small reptile, w'hich lived in Jurassic times, long before mammals and birds played an important role upon this planet. The volume describes and supplies figures of four living fishes and one hundred and forty- two species of living insects, all of which are new to science and never before had been named. In addition there are re-described in the text and figured on the plates more than two hundred and fifty species, including many types of species, which previously have been rather inadequately described, and none of them hitherto figured in any publication whatever. The volume therefore in its content is a genuine addition to the sum of human knowledge. W. J.

ANNALS OF THE CARNEGIE MUSEUM VOLUME XVL PART L Editorial Notes. The fifteenth volume of the ANNALS and the ninth volume of the MEMOIRS of the Carnegie Museum have been issued in bound form from the Carnegie Institute Press. The tenth volume of the MEMOIRS is in process of being printed and possibly will be brought to completion within the present year, although it is somewhat doubtful whether the papers now in the hands of the printer will form a body of material sufficiently large to justify the conclusion of the volume. Several shorter papers may be added to those now going through the press. In sending forth the first part of the sixteenth volume of the ANNALS the Editor ventures to express the hope that the numerous delays which attended the printing and publication of the last volume will not be repeated. Under the circumstances they were unavoidable. We recently had the great pleasure of welcoming to the Museum one of its most devoted and helpful friends, Mr. B. Preston Clark, of Boston, who is known to all entomologists as one of the leading lepidopterists of America. He has made an intensive study of the SpMngid(B. Of this large and interesting family of moths he possesses the largest assemblage of species in the United States. He has just completed the purchase of the Sphingidce, which formed a part of the collection of the late M, Charles Oberthiir of Rennes in France. Mr. Clark informs us, that, after reserving the types contained in this collection for incorporation in his own, the remainder will be sent to the Carnegie Museum! The SphingidcB of the Holland Collection, 1 2 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. the large supplementary series already acquired by the Carnegie Museum, together with the addition so kindly proposed by Mr. Clark will make the collection here one of the largest in existence. Should Mr. Clark carry out certain intentions, which he has expressed, but concerning which the Editor does not feel at liberty to speak, the collection of SphingidcB in the Carnegie Museum may ultimately rank as the largest and finest in the world. The writer of these lines cannot refrain from giving expression to his appreciation of the generosity of his learned and distinguished friend, his admiration for the scientific perseverance which he has displayed, and the sincere personal affection which has arisen during many years of delightful intercourse with him. A well earned and fitting honor was bestowed upon Air. William Schaus of the United States National Museum, when on February 27, I 1925, the University of Pittsburgh conferred upon him the degree of Doctor of Science, in recognition of his distinguished achievements as a lepidopterist. Air. Schaus has an international reputation. From his boyhood he has been an indefatigable collector and student of the lepidoptera. He long resided in Paris and London and made himself familiar with all the treasures contained in the private as well as public collections of Europe. He is known personally to all working lepidopterists both of Europe and America. His private collection, now deposited in the U. S. National Aluseum, is very large. It is no exaggeration to say that it constitutes, so far as exotic lepidoptera are concerned, the most important part of the collections in the National Aluseum. Air. Schaus has trax^elled extensively in the tropics of the New World, accompanied by his friend Air. John T. Barnes. Together they have explored Alexico, Honduras, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, Venezuela, the Guianas, Brazil, and the islands of the West Indies. They have brought back thousands of species new to science. The papers published by Air. Schaus form a long array; the species named by him number about five thousand. He is a fine representative of a class of men, happily increasing in number in this country, who, gifted with leisure and fortune, devote themselves to the pursuit of science, and thus help to enlarge the boundaries of human knowledge. Air. Schaus has been a generous friend of the Carnegie Museum, Editorial Notes. 3 and it is a pleasure to mention the fact that the two papers which appear first in this issue of the ANNALS are due to his efforts, the first containing descriptions of more than half a hundred new species of Epipaschiince which are contained in the Carnegie Museum, the second a paper prepared in collaboration with the writer of these lines upon the Epipaschiince of the Western Hemisphere. For the first time in the annals of science a sauropod dinosaur, complete from the tip of the nose to the end of the tail, with nearly all the bones in place, has been worked out in the paleontological laboratory of this museum. At the invitation of Dr. Stewart, Mr. Charles W. Gilmore of Washington, a former member of the staff of the Carnegie Museum, has prepared a preliminary account of the specimen, which will shortly appear in the MEMOIRS. A large collection of birds obtained in the valley of the Rio Purus, Brazil, by the veteran collector, Mr. S. M. Klages, has recently been received in the Carnegie Museum. Mr. Todd, the Curator of Orni~ tfiology, reports that it contains many species hitherto not represented in our collections. The assemblage of birds in the Carnegie Museum now equals in number of specimens the collection of birds in the National Museum in Berlin, and is only surpassed in its extent by two other American collections, the one in the American Museum of Natural History in New York and the other that which is found in the U. S. National Museum. The last meeting of the American Ornithologists Union was held in the Carnegie Museum. A large number of interesting and finely illustrated papers were presented. It is a matter of regret to the Editor of the ANNALS that his attendance upon the sessions was not as constant as he would have preferred it to have been. Un- fortunately his duties in his office as well as the care of the affairs of the Carnegie Hero Fund, of which he is the President, made continual presence impossible. It was, however, a delight to renew acquaint- ance with many of his scientific friends, some of whom have grown gray since he first learned to know them, and many of whom have become famous. 4 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. We are sorry to lose from the Staff of the Museum Mr. George Miksch Sutton, who has since the last issue of the ANNALS accepted the position of State Ornithologist, with headquarters in Harrisburg. Mr. Sutton brings to his new position ability and large general in- formation. Our loss is the gain of the State of Pennsylvania. Mr. C. D. Armstrong has just presented to the Aluseum a wine-cup of pure white yiinglo (A.D. 1403-1424) of the variety known as t'o-t'ai, “egg-shell porcelain.” Around the sides it is delicately orna- mented by flowers and leaves, faintly engraved and overlaid by the translucent white enamel. On the foot is the mark “ Yung-lo-nien- chih" in the seal character, which being interpreted signifies: “Made in the Yung Period.” This specimen was purchased by the donor from the Hippisley Collection, a full account of which is given in the Report of the United States National Museum for 1888, pp. 387-491. The gift of this very rare and beautiful specimen by Mr. Armstrong is greatly appreciated. Editorial Notes. 5 On September 29, 1924, Mr. John Wesley Beatty, one of the original Trustees of the Carnegie Institute, which position he resigned in order to become the Director of the Department of Fine Arts at its inception in 1896, entered into rest. Mr. Beatty was born in Pittsburgh on July 8, 1851, the son of Richard and Elizabeth (Wilson) Beatty. His ancestors on both sides were Scotch. In his youth he developed a decided talent for drawing, and after some preliminary training in his native city, went to Munich, where he spent a number of years studying in the Munich Academy of Fine Arts. Upon his return to Pittsburgh he found employment as an illustrator. Presently associating himself with the late Mr. George Hetzel, the landscape painter, he established the Pittsburgh Art School, where he and his colleague taught for more than eight years. During this period he painted a number of pictures of decided merit and produced a number of etchings, which revealed great skill. He thus became recognized throughout the country as one of the rising artists of his generation. When it became necessary for the Trustees of the Institute to select a Director for the Depart- ment of Fine Arts it was at once recognized that Mr. Beatty possessed all the qualifications for this important position, and he was induced to resign his trusteeship and accept transference to the Directorship. The writer of these lines recalls distinctly the enthusiasm and energy with which Mr. Beatty addressed himself to the task, which he had undertaken. The idea of holding an annual exhibition of paintings, which should represent the best work produced by painters in the United States and Europe, took firm hold of his imagination, and was sanctioned by the Trustees. The first exhibition of paintings in the galleries in the fall of the year 1895 was a loan exhibition, which was most remarkable, because it brought together from various private collections not only in Pitts- burgh but all parts of the United States, many of the best examples of the art of contemporary American and foreign painters. This pre- liminary exhibition, the excellence of which attracted universal atten- tion, was destined to be followed in succeeding years by what came to be known as the International Exhibition of Paintings at the Carnegie Institute. The recognition and awards of prizes accorded to artists caused representation in this annual display of paintings 6 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. to be coveted by painters in all parts of the world. In quest of the finest work produced in America and Europe Mr. Beatty made numerous journeys, and repeatedly crossed the Atlantic. He won for himself the friendship of the artists of the world. Through the judicious purchase of works of merit foundations were speedily laid for what is known as the “Permanent Collection.” When through the kindness of Mr. Carnegie the building was en- larged and the structure was rededicated in April, 1907, the occasion was dignified by the presence of a number of the most eminent American and foreign artists, and the exhibit was pronounced to be one of the most important in the annals of American art. In addition to the work done by Mr. Beatty in making the Carnegie Institute a focal point for the display of the work of painters and illustrators, there was brought about in the creation of the Gallery of Architecture one of the most noteworthy and helpful exhibits of its kind in the United States. In the execution of this work he re- ceived no small degree of help from Messrs. Alden, Longfellow, and Harlow, the architects, who designed the building of the Carnegie Institute, and whose great knowledge of the history and development of architecture was freely put at his command. To the planning and execution of the noble designs, which Mr. Beatty originally conceived, Mr. Carnegie lent hi§ enthusiastic approval and generously contributed the needed financial support. The Department of Fine Arts of the Carnegie Institute, as it stands today, is justly regarded as a monu- ment of the exquisite taste and consuming zeal of our dear friend, who has so recently been taken from us. Personally Mr. Beatty was a most lovable character. All who came to know him learned to cherish affection for him. He received many honors during his lifetime. In his death the cause of art in America lost a great leader and society an ornament. All that was mortal of him we laid to rest on October 5, 1924, just as the setting sun kissed the horizon and the dark shadows began to fill the glens of Homewood Cemetery. The long and beautiful day, full of light and bird-song, ending in a cloudless sunset, was emble- matic of his whole career. His memory is lovingly cherished by a great circle of friends. iiis; SlM. V!tV»\ .v-1-.fh- *- Editorial Notes. 7 On Wednesday, December 3, 1924, Mr. William Lucien Scaife, who was elected a Trustee of the Carnegie Institute on March 22, 1901, quietly passed away. During the years of his connection with the Institute he served almost continuously as a member of the Committee upon the Museum and from the beginning until the close of his life as a member of the Committee in charge of the Technical Schools (The Carnegie Institute of Technology). Mr. Scaife was the son of the late William B. Scaife and Mar^^ (Frisbee) Scaife. He was born in Pittsburgh on October i, 1853. He pursued his studies in the common schools, completing with credit the appointed course in the Central High School of Pittsburgh, after which he was matriculated at Yale, where he graduated in the year 1873. He then went abroad and continued his studies at the School of Mines at Freiberg in Saxony and at the Ecole de Mines in Paris. In order to obtain practical knowledge of European mining methods he worked for a short while as a subordinate in a coal-mine in Belgium. Returning to America he spent a couple of years in Nova Scotia as a mining engineer. Finally he returned to Pittsburgh and with a partner established the Scaife Foundry and Machine Company, Ltd., with which he was connected until almost the time of his death. Mr. Scaife was always deeply interested in all matters relating to the educational and civic progress of the community. He served on important committees of the Chamber of Commerce of Pittsburgh. He took an active part in the work of the Western Pennsylvania Engineers Society, and was its President in the year 1890. He was a charter member of the Pittsburgh Academy of Sciences and Art, in which he served for a long time as Trustee, and for a time as Secre- tary and also as President. He was a member of the Board of Trustees of the University of Pittsburgh from 1894 until his death and for almost the entire period served as an efficient member of the Com- mittee in charge of the affairs of the Allegheny Observatory. He was one of the original members of the Frick Educational Commis- sion, in which he served as Secretary from its foundation until his election as President, in which capacity he served from 1920 until his death. He was one of the original members of the Carnegie Hero 8 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. Fund Commission, and during the last two years of his life was Vice- President of that body. Mr. Scaife was a diligent student and possessed a large fund of knowledge on many subjects. He wrote a great deal, contributing occasional articles to the Atlantic Monthly and other similar journals. His last literary effort was that of editing and preparing for publica- tion the autobiography of his friend. Dr. John A. Brashear. Mr. Scaife was characterized not only by large information and a cultured mind, but by a most intense devotion to those causes in which he became interested. He was diligent and conscientious in the performance of duty. In committees, whoever else might be present, Mr. Scaife was sure to be on hand, unless confined to bed by illness. His whole life was characterized by extreme modesty. He shrank from publicity, and refused to allow himself to be either photographed, or to have his features in any other way delineated, a fact which now is a cause for regret to his numerous friends, who would like to possess some record of his appearance in life. The Editor of the Annals on the back of a letter sketched the features of his dead friend, as he lay in his last long sleep, and with the help of a diminutive “snap shot” of the side of his face, taken on a public occasion, when he was apparently trying to hide behind another man, guided by memory, has endeavored to draw a likeness. This lead-pencil sketch is herewith reproduced. Imperfect as it is, he nevertheless believes that it may serve in a measure to recall the features of our departed friend to those who knew and loved him. I. NEW SPECIES OF EPIPASCHIIN/E IN THE CARNEGIE AND NATIONAL MUSEUMS. By William Schaus.

Habitat: Texas. Type and paratypes in Hulst Collection; also in Brooklyn Museum. We figure a male and a female from the Barnes Collection; the male agreeing closely with the type in the Hulst Collection, as Mr. Benjamin writes me, and as I know by personal inspection; the female agreeing perfectly with a specimen of that sex in the Hulst Collection, which has been sent me by Professor Headlee for comparison and study. This species is the genotype of the genus Wanda Hulst. A careful examination does not reveal any characteristics, which should cause the species to be separated from others, which are referred to Tetralopha {sensii latiore). The genus Wanda sinks into the synonymy, as do numerous other genera proposed by Dr. Hulst. In quite recent times Dr. Schaus has allocated to the genus Wanda a number of neotropical species, which upon study do not appear to me to be referable to Tetralopha nor to Pococera. Since Wanda, which has served as a receptacle for these forms, sinks as a synonym, I have elsewhere erected for their reception a genus under the name Nouanda. ( Cf. p. 79) W. J. Holland. 33.

H., four examples, labelled diluculella. Cam. Mus., several. Barnes and McDunnough have followed Hampson in identifying T. diluculella with T. rohustella Zeller. Hulst regarded diluculella as a variant of the species named melanogrammos by Zeller. In its proper place we give a figure of the type of melanogrammos and by reference to this it may be seen that there is no close resemblance between the present species and melanogrammos. Hulst’s view is still reflected in his collection, where dilucullela is placed under melanogrammos. Hampson had in the Zeller Collection, which is in the British Museum, the type of rohustella Zeller, and the type of diluculella Grote, and sank the latter as a synonym of the former. We follow Hampson rather than Hulst. Fig. 3. Type of Tetralopha talleolalis (Hulst) from photograph supplied by Messrs. Barnes and Benjamin. Hulst sank the name talleolalis as a synonym of melanogrammos. Through the kindness of Dr. Barnes and his associate, Mr. F. H. Benjamin, we are able to here reproduce a photograph of a type- specimen of talleolalis labelled in the hand-writing of Hulst. The “type” talleolalis shown in fig. 3 is unmistakably a male of the insect to which Zeller gave the specific name rohustella. It does not differ in any essential respect from males contained in the series labelled “ T. rohustella var. diluculella Grote,” bred from larvae feeding 64 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. upon pine, which are contained in the U. S. N. M. Mr. Benjamin in letters has- suggested that Hulst’s talleolalis may possibly be a valid species. The writer of these lines cannot agree with this view. We have not figured a male of rohustella Zeller, but a comparison of the figure of the type of Hulst’s talleolalis with the figure of the female diluculella, which we give on PI. V, fig. 12, will serve to show that in all essential features the two, rohustella = diluculella and talleolalis, are the same. Before concluding this brief discussion of the synonymy of this species it may be proper to point out that Forbes in his recent work, entitled “The Lepidoptera of New York and Adjacent States,” cites diluculella as a variety under both T. rohustella and T. melanogrammos. It cannot well be a variety of both species. W. J. Holland. 34. Tetralopha subcanalis (Walker). PI. V, fig. 6, (T ; fig. 37, 9 , paratype (querciella). Nephopteryx subcanalis Walker, Cat. Lep. Het.

The specimen was originally sent to Zeller by Dr. Packard and was later returned to Dr. Packard with the type-label attached. In the Barnes Collection there is a series of specimens from Kerrville, Texas, identified as this species. It is not represented in the U. S. N. M. nor the Cam. Mus. The senior author is strongly inclined to regard the species as identical with T. texanella Ragonot. Should this suspicion be confirmed, texanella will sink as a synonym of melanogrammos.

Two of these, N. agatha (Schaus) and N. nocturna (Schaus) agree fairly well in the neuration (although not in the outline) of their wings and in the structure of the palpi and the antenna. The third species N. sadotha (Schaus) is provisionally referred to the new genus, but it does not agree so well with the others, and upon a final revision of the group will probably have to be placed in another genus. 104.

(Genotype E. superatalis Clemens, 1. c.) As stated before ( Cf. p. 49) we do not sink Epipaschia Clemens as a synonym of Macalla Walker, the type of which is M. thyrsisalis. A minute examination of the two insects, which are the types of the two genera, shows, of course, general resemblances, but marked differences. In addition to the differences in the neuration of the wings already pointed out in Footnote i ( Cf. p. 49) the structure of the palpi and of the antennae is quite unlike. In Macalla the labial palpi are robust, deeply hollowed out to receive the maxillary palpi, which are long, with their brush-like extremities extruding near the upper end of the second joint of the labial palpi; in Epipaschia the Holland & Schaus: Catalog of American Epipaschiin^. 103 labial palpi are slender, the maxillary palpi very short, their brush- like extremities extruding near the base of the second joint of the maxillary palpi. In Macalla thyrsisalis the appendage of the basal joint of the antenna is large, coriaceous, more or less upright in position, broadly expanded distally, and not very densely scaled; in Epipaschia superatalis this appendage is ligulate, narrow, directed strongly backward parallel to the thorax, and densely covered with long scales. (See fig. 13.) These differences in the structure of the oral and antennal parts warrant our maintaining the generic distinct- ness of the two forms and their congeners. Fig. 13. I.

A typical specimen, which has been compared with the type, is in the U. S. N. M. Cam. Mus.: two from French Guiana, two from Hyutanahan, Brazil, nearly agree with the type, though somewhat darker. * The generic synonymy given by Hampson has not been followed by us in several particulars. We recognize Cacozelia Grote and Roeseliodes Warren as valid genera, although Hampson sinks them as synonyms of Stericta together with many other genera of other authors. Holland & Schaus: Catalog of American Epipaschiin^. 115 This seems to be a very variable species. The Carnegie Museum, as well as the United States National Museum, possesses a long series of specimens, which reveal considerable differences in the intensity of the coloration and the distribution of the shades on the fore-wings, although all are alike in the form and disposition of the transverse lines and spots. Some of these forms might be worthy of varietal names. We show three of them. The one given on PI. IV, fig. 3, most nearly resembles typical 5. obliqualis Hampson, but is a trifle darker on the fore-wings and the thorax, thus throwing the pale 'collar into relief; another form, PI. IV, fig. 7, is prevalently paler, with the middle area of the fore wing clouded with dark; the third form, PI. IV, fig. 4, has the basal area of the fore wing quite pale gray, contrasting with the darker color of the middle third of the fore-wing. To the form shown on PI. IV, fig. 7, Dr. Schaus has applied the name 5. menoralis; the form shown on the same plate, fig. 4, may be called var. griseohasis Holland and Schaus. 275. Stericta chionopheralis Hampson. PI.

A specimen from Chapada, Brazil, in the Holland Collection is in the Carnegie Museum and agrees with the type, with which it has been compared. The species is further represented in the Carnegie Museum by one specimen from French Guiana, and fifteen from Bolivia (Steinbach coll.). The species is also represented in the Carnegie Museum by a varietal form (PI. Ill, fig. 27) in which the white on the fore-wing is greatly reduced in extent. Of this form there are in the Holland Collection ten specimens collected at Chapada, Brazil, by H. H. Smith; and in the general collection of the Carnegie Museum one from Bolivia (Steinbach coll.) and seven from Hyutanahan, Brazil, on the Rio Purus (Klages coll.).

From the figure it appears that the wings somewhat resemble in form those of certain species of Nouanda, e. g. N. nocturna Schaus, but the description of the oral parts does not agree with what we know of this genus. The reference to Jocara by Kaye is evidently made with doubt, as he speaks of the insect as being “anomalous.” 318. Stericta palmistalis Kaye. Stericta palmistalis Kaye, Trans. Ent. Soc.

Rinkenbach. (Plates VIII-IX.) We have recently returned from the Timagami region of Ontario with specimens of a species of charr belonging to the S. alpinus- group, which upon examination and comparison appears to be new. The species is locally known as “Rainbow Trout,” “Land-locked Salmon,” and “Salmon-trout.” Since none of the local names are truly applicable, we suggest that this beautifully colored trout be known as the Aurora Trout. It may be described as follows: Salvelinus timagamiensis sp. nov. (Aurora Trout). Type: 7969 Carnegie Museum Catalog of Fishes, 10.75 inches in total length. Paratypes: 7970^-^, Car. Mus. Cat. of Fishes, ten specimens from 8.63 to 13.5 inches in total length; and one, head only, of a specimen 16.0 inches in total length. Description. Head 4.04 to 4.33 (average, 4.20) in length to end of the lateral line, or the base of the middle caudal rays. Snout 3.1 to 3.6 in head. Eye in head, 5.2 (in specimen 10. inches in total length) to 7.33 (in specimen 16 inches in total length). Vomerine teeth in a triangular patch similar to that figured for S. perisii by Regan (Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., (8) XIH, p. 408), relatively strong, recurved, paired, and not extending down the shaft of the vomer. Shaft of vomer depressed, with no evidence of a raised crest. This condition is typical of the genus Salvelinus. No evidence of basibranchial teeth in any of the specimens examined; teeth of the tongue and dentary strong and recurved. Pyloric coeca elongate and tubular rather than lobate, quite similar to those of 5. fontinalis, and numbering thirty-five in the single individual examined (7970;). Branchiostegals and gill- rakers variable, as indicated in the appended table of measurements. 131 132 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. D., lo; A., 9; P., 13-14; V., 8-9. Scales 47 to 50 about 240 to 250 — 41 to 44; scales from adipose fin to. lateral line, 27; scales with pores about 130 to 137. Lower jaw (distance from tip to junction with the quadrate) in head, 1.43 to 1.60 (av., 1.50). Upper jaw (distance from tip of snout to end of maxillary) in head, 1.57 to 1.72 (av., 1.65). Maxillary extremely elongate. In large specimens (13.5 and 16 inches in total length) the maxillary extends beyond the vertical from the posterior margin of the eye a distance equal to the total length of the orbit, as measured from the anterior tip of the triangular orbital membrane to the posterior edge of the eyeball. In a specimen of S. namaycush of about the same size (U. S. N. M., 77,866) the maxillary extends beyond the posterior margin of the eye a distance equal to about only three-fourths of the length of the eyeball. In smaller specimens of the present species (8.5 to 10 inches in total length) the maxillary extends beyond the vertical from the posterior margin of the eye a distance about equal to, or slightly less than, the length of the eyeball. This proportion is similar in specimens of S. fontinalis of the same size. Fig. I. Outline of head of 5. timagamiensis, C. M. No. 7970k, 16 in. long. One-half natural size. Fig. 2. Outline of head of 5. timagamiensis, C. M. No. 7970b, 8.7s in. long. Three- fourths natural size. Distance from tip of snout to end of maxillary in smaller specimens about equal to the length of the pectoral fin and to the length of the longest caudal rays. In the larger specimens this distance is greater than the pectoral length. In species with a short maxillary, such as S. oquassa, this distance is much less than the pectoral length. Henn and Rinkenbach: The Aurora Trout. 133 Body robust; profile arched; and head relatively broad and flat- tened or depressed. Depth at origin of the dorsal, 1.04 to 1.18 (av., i.ii) in length of head; and this depth 4.44^0 4.90 (av., 4.65) in length to base of caudal. Dorsal with ten rays; distance from tip of snout to origin of dorsal about equal the distance from the posterior base of the dorsal to the base of the middle caudal rays. The origin of the dorsal is about 0.8 of the diameter of the eye anterior to the midline between the snout and the base of the caudal. Dorsal higher than its base is long; its base i.i to 1.3 (av., 1.23) in the length of its longest (the second) ray, and 2. to 2.45 (av., 2.2) in head. Length of longest ray of the dorsal 1.5 to 1.95 (av., 1.78) in head. The distance from the posterior end of the base of the dorsal to the origin of the adipose fin is about equal to the length of the head. The distance from the tip of the snout to the base of the pectoral, 0.96 to 1.25 (av., i.ii) in the distance from the dorsal to the adipose and 1.9 to 2.43 (av., 2.11) in the distance from the tip of snout to the origin of the dorsal. Pectoral 13-14; the pectoral is the longest of the fins, its length being about equal to that of the longest caudal rays and 1.4 to 1.76 (av., 1.59) in head. The distance from the base of the pectoral to the base of the ventral is 3.01 to 3.42 (av., 3.28) in the length to the base of the caudal. Ventral with 8-9 rays. The ventral is situated slightly anterior to the median line from the base of the dorsal; its origin being very slightly nearer the tip of the snout than to the base of the middle caudal rays. The distance from the base of the ventral to the origin of the anal is slightly less than the length of the head, being about equal to the length of the head, less half of the total orbital diameter, and is contained from 4.48 to 5.10 (av., 4.71) in the length to the base of the caudal. Anal with 9 rays. The height of the anal fin (measured from in front of the anterior base, or origin, to the tip of the third, and longest, ray) equals 0.6 to 0.77 (av., 0.67) of the distance from the ventral to the anal. The length of the anal base equals 0.58 to 0.69 (av., 0.64) of the height of the anal. The height of the anal in the younger specimens is greater than the distance from the posterior base of the anal to the lower base of the caudal, and in the larger specimens it is about equal to this distance. The anal fin is of about the same length as the pectoral fin, or slightly less. The distance 134 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. from the posterior base of the anal to the lower base of the caudal (this measurement cannot be accurately taken) is slightly greater than the distance from the posterior base of the adipose to the upper base of the caudal, containing the least depth of the caudal peduncle from I. to 1.63 (av., 1.28) times. The caudal in specimens of all sizes is slightly lunate or truncate, being very similar to that of 5. fontinalis. It is never notched, or forked. The coloration we record is based upon notes made in the field from freshly captured specimens. A small specimen, sex indeterminate, about nine inches in length, has the dorsal surface uniformly iridescent dark olive-green^ which has a golden glint in the sunlight. The sides become paler, below the lateral line becoming silvery, and gradually shading into the pure white abdomen. Alcoholic specimens, when revolved in the light, give off a steel-blue iridescence, indicating that this coloration is structural rather than pigmentary. Coloration uniform, i. e., without spots, only one small specimen (7970c) showing faint traces of a darker dorsal mottling. Iris oval and black; margin of iris greenish golden. Belly pure white. Fins colored as in the adult, except that their inner border is white, instead of light lemon-yellow. A sexually mature female (7970J C. M. Cat. Fishes) 13.5 inches in total length has the dorsal coloration similar to younger specimens, but darker; the plumbeous color being uniform, progressively lighter ventrally. Dorsal and caudal fins uniformly bluish or colorless. In some cases black pigment overlies the fin-rays of the dorsal; never, however, producing black spots, as in S. fontinalis. Pectorals, ventrals, anal, and lower lobe of caudal margined with clear white, then a solid ivory-black patch which tapers terminally to form a narrow black streak, which follows the white outer margin to its tip. Balance of all fins (except dorsal and caudal) bright crimson-madder, except inner third, which fades to a very pale lemon-yellow. Lower jaw and abdomen pure white; throat and branchiostegals outlined with dusky. Lateral spots, characteristic of most species of trout, are lacking in all of our specimens, except C. M. Cat. Fishes No. 79707. On the left side, just below the lateral line this specimen has two spots, the ^ Although our field-notes indicate that the dorsal region is colored dark olive- green, no trace of this coloration is evident in the alcoholic specimens, which cause it to appear that the coloration of this region is dark bluish-silvery, or plum-colored Henn and Rinkenbach: The Aurora Trout. 135 anterior just above the tip of the pectorals, and the posterior anterior to the vertical from the ventrals. These spots are quite similar to the typical ocelli of S. fontinalis, consisting of a central spot of crimson-madder surrounded by a very light blue aureola. It is our belief, based on observations made by the junior author in September, 1923, that, as the colder weather and, presumably, the breeding season approach, faint indications of the presence of the bicolored (red and blue) ocelli appear, and can be detected on very close examination. After several months of preservation in alcohol, several of our specimens show faint, irregular, colorless blotches that are in no wise similar to the sharply defined, yellow spots of S. fon- tinalis preserved under exactly similar conditions. There was, how- ever, no indication of these colorless areas at the time of capture. 2 Fig. 3. Alcoholic specimens of 1. 5. timagamiensis, C. M. No. 797oj, 2. S. fontinalis, C. M. No. 7977a. Differentiation. Although a member of the arctic or alpine charrs, {S. alpinus- group of Regan), having the clear, or unmottled fins, and the denti- tion of that group, this species has many resemblances to the Brook- trout {S. fontinalis)^ especially in the size and shape of the maxillary and in the truncate caudal fin. As pointed out in the description of the coloration, this similarity is enhanced by the presence in one specimen (79709) of two of the typical crimson spots of S. fontinalis. 136 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. However, it differs markedly from this species in coloration, being a more or less uniformly colored, bluish-silvery fish. The presence in the same waters of specimens of the true S. fontinalis proves that S. timagamiensis is not a lacustrine, nor a color-variety of S. fontinalis. The Canadian Red Trout, S. marstoni (Carman), the geographic range of which approaches most nearly that of the present species, is the only form of the “5. alpinus-group'' which is not extremely restricted in its habitat. It has been recorded from a number of lakes in Quebec between Lac de Marbre or Marble Lake in Wakefield township, Ottawa County, north of the Ottawa River, down along the St. Lawrence River to Rimouski County on the south shore. A full list of localities for this species is given by Evermann and Golds- borough (Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., XX, 1907, p. 104). S. marstoni is not at all closely allied to S. timagamiensis, since it has a relatively short maxillary, sharp recurved teeth on the tongue, which are quite feeble in S. timagamiensis, and a deeply cleft or forked tail. As emphasized in the original description by Carman (Science, XXII, 1893, p. 23) in S. marstoni, “the caudal notch is deeper ... than in any other of the American forms, except S. namaycush.'^ The dorsal and anal fins are also longer, each having thirteen rays. Differences in color would doubtless also be evident in living specimens. Color- plates of both sexes of S. marstoni from drawings by Denton were published in the . “Fifth Annual Report of the Commissioners of Fisheries, Came, and Forests of the State of New York” for 1899 (1900), under the caption, “The Canadian Red Trout.” In the same series for the following year (Sixth Ann. Rept., 1900 (1901), pp. 353- 356), Mr. John W. Titcomb gave an interesting treatise on the life- history and habits of this trout. For purpose of direct comparison we have received a specimen of S. marstoni, determined by Mr. Samuel Carman, from the Museum of Comparative Zoology and another from the U. S. National Museum (No. 72,292) from the Laurentides National Park (Lake St. John District) of Quebec. From the Silver Trout of Monadnock Lake {S. agassizii Carman) 5. timagamiensis differs considerably. In S. timagamiensis the maxil- lary is much longer and, as in S. fontinalis, the form is essentially depressed; while S. agassizii is a much slenderer fish, with a pointed snout and slightly notched caudal, contrasting with the blunt snout and truncate caudal of S. timagamiensis and S. fontinalis. Henn and Rinkenbach: The Aurora Trout. 137 From the Blue-back Trout of the Rangeley Lakes (5. oquassa), S. timagamiensis is differentiated in several important structural details. In addition to having a longer maxillary S. timagamiensis has the ventral fins more anterior; the distance from the tip of the snout to the base of the ventral fins being less than that'^from this point to the base of the caudal. In 5. oquassa these distances are approximately equal. The fact that S. timagamiensis possesses this extremely elongate maxillary serves to differentiate it immediately from all other species of Salvelinus of northeastern North America such as S. alpinus, S. alipes, and S. aureolus, without a further con- sideration of structural and color-differences, which are numerous in each case. We have been enabled to make direct comparisons with most of the above species through the loan of a nice series of North American trouts by the U. S. National Museum, received through the courtesy of Professor Barton A. Bean. Fig. 4. View of White Pine Lake from Tower Hill. Distribution. The specimens we have studied were collected August 7th to 9th, 1924, in “White Pine Lake,” so called by the natives, located in latitude 47° 24' N. and in longitude 80° 15' W.,in Gamble Township, Timagami Forest Reserve, Province of Ontario, Canada. This lake has an altitude of approximately 1300 feet above sea-level, and is unnamed on the Gowganda Sheet (8NE) of the Standard Topo- graphical Map issued by the Department of the Interior of Canada (1921). It is directly east of Smoothwater Lake, and on the map 138 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. (PL IX) is shown as the long, narrow lake running from southeast to northwest and draining into Smoothwater Lake. These lakes form the headwaters of the East Branch of the Montreal River, an affluent of the St. Lawrence system. Although our specimens of this trout are all from White Pine Lake, we saw small specimens of what were undoubtedly S. timagamiensis in Clearwater Lake and know that specimens were caught in the small lake to the southwest of White Pine Lake. We were informed by Mr. Dick, of Gowganda, that this species occurs in the small pond formed by the creek running from Clearwater to Smoothwater Lake. Forest-rangers report its occurrence in Smith Lake, which is west of Smoothwater Lake. These bodies of water are all small lakes draining into Smoothwater Lake. Therefore this species may occur also in Apex, Parent, Lulu, Okiniada, Lady Dufferin, and Kennedy Lakes; thus constituting a total area of probable distribution of about eighty square miles. It is not known to occur in Smoothwater Lake. White Pine Lake (Fig. 4) is a body of clear water approximately three miles long and one-sixth of a mile wide. The region surrounding it is an uninhabited wilderness of forest, consisting of pine, spruce, balsam, cedar, silver birch, and poplar, growing upon the almost bare Huronian diabase, which is the general rock-formation of this region. The lake-bottom is practically free of sediment, the stones being imbedded in a coarse sand and scantily covered with a growth of algae. There is but little growth of water-weeds, and the white and yellow pond-lilies, common in .this region, are conspicuously absent. From these waters we have also taken specimens of S. fontinalis and of a sucker {Catostomus catostomus). We have been informed that S. namaycush has been taken in Smoothwater Lake, where we have taken a few wall-eyed pike {Stizostedion). All of the smaller specimens of the Aurora Trout taken by us were infested by a parasitic copepod, identified by Professor Charles Branch Wilson as Salmincola edwardsii (Olssen). These parasites were abundantly attached to all fins, especially to the dorsal. The caudal fins of the larger specimens, which, when taken, were free from this parasite, nevertheless showed scars or markings, proving earlier infestation. Henn and Rinkenbach; The Aurora Trout. 139 Size. Our specimens, as previously indicated, range in size from 8.63 to 16 inches in total length. In addition, we have caught and seen specimens of 18 inches or even greater length. From this it is evident that S', timagamiensis approximates S. fontinalis rather than S. namaycush in range of size. Historical. On September i, 1923 a party of anglers consisting of the junior author, Messrs. Arno C. Fieldner, Wm. P. Yant, and S. H. Katz, caught four specimens of the species herein described in White Pine Lake, one or two specimens of S. fontinalis being taken at the same time. On the following day, two more specimens of the Aurora Trout were taken in the small lake to the southwest of White Pine Lake. All of these specimens were not less than twelve inches or more than eighteen inches in total length. Not recognizing the species, but assuming that it was what was commonly and vaguely referred to as “Gray Trout” apd “Salmon Trout,” no attempt was made to preserve specimens, the salted skin of only one being brought out as a trophy. A search of the literature by the junior author failing to positively identify the fish, the senior author was consulted. Upon his advice, the matter was taken up with Dr. William C. Kendall of the U. S. Bureau of Fisheries. In commenting, Dr. Kendall wrote that he was unable to make an identification, but said: “For several reasons, I do not believe it to be a hybrid. It is quite possible that in those waters there is a hitherto unrecognized species.” Acting upon this sugges- tion, on May 15, 1924, the junior author, accompanied by Mr. Charles O. Goulding, Jr., of Pittsburgh, made a trip to Timagami to collect for the Carnegie Museum specimens of this and other trouts native to the region. However, because of extremely cold weather and consequent poor angling, it was found impossible to carry out the plans made. On July 31, 1924, the authors left with the same purpose in view. After travelling to Latchford, Ontario, it was necessary for five days to proceed by canoe and trail until White Pine Lake was reached. We there remained in camp for four days, taking the specimens 140 Annals of the Carnegie Museum. listed on August 7, 8, and 9. These were preserved in four percent, formaldehyde. Natural color photographs of several of the specimens, as well as of specimens of S. fontinalis from the Lady Evelyn River were taken. While encamped at this spot, we met Messrs. Marrit and Bruno, government rangers, stationed on Smoothwater Lake. They gave us general information concerning the distribution of S. timagamiensis. Mr. Dick of Gowganda visited Smoothwater and White Pine Lakes during our presence and gave us information concerning methods by which other anglers had taken numbers of this fish. These people, of course, were unaware that this was a distinct species, referring to them as ‘‘Rainbow Trout.” Habits. In the short space of time at our disposal, it was not possible to make more than the most casual observations in regard to the habits of S. timagamiensis. In general it appears that these are similar to those of S. fontinalis, with which they share their habitat. This would apply to their food, times of feeding, etc. We are informed that in the early spring they may be taken on the surface by means of flies. We have caught them in August and September by still- fishing with worms at a depth of about fifteen feet and by trolling with small or medium-sized spoons and fly-spoons at depths of about forty feet. In the stomach of one Aurora Trout caught on a troll was found a recently swallowed Wood-mouse. Reproduction. No observations have been made regarding their breeding habits. It was noted that in September the fish taken appeared much brighter than those taken in August and that faint crimson spots similar to those in S. fontinalis appeared to show through the characteristically silvery sides. From this it would seem that the late fall is their spawning period. The creeks are few, shallow, and short. It is to be presumed that these or the shallows of the lakes form their spawning beds. Henn and Rinkenbach: The Aurora Trout. 141 Protection. At present this species is but casually protected under very liberal laws applying to S, fontinalis, under which an open season, extending from May ist to September 30th, permits each angler to take ten pounds per diem. In view of the rapid rate at which other rare trouts of restricted distribution have been rendered almost extinct, it is to be hoped that measures will be taken by either the Provincial or Do- minion Government toward the conservation of this new species. Perhaps the best safeguard against its extinction lies in the long and difficult journey between the railroad and its habitat. Data.
