CHECK LIST OF THE FISHES AND FISHLIKE VERTEBRATES OF 
NORTH AND MIDDLE AMERICA NORTH OF THE NORTHERN 
BOUNDARY OF VENEZUELA AND COLOMBIA * 


By 


Davip Starr JoRDAN, BARTON WARREN: EVERMANN, and 
HowarbD WALTON CLARK 


INTRODUCTION , 


The present memoir comprises a list of all the fishes and fishlike 
vertebrates known to occur in the waters of north and middle America; 
more specifically all of continental America north of the Isthmus of 
Panama, and the outlying islands including the West Indies, the 
Greater and the Lesser Antilles, Greenland, Iceland, and the islands 
off the Pacific coast of Central America, Mexico, the United States, 
and Alaska. The salt-water species on the northern coasts of Co- 
lombia and Venezuela have been included. Those of the Galapagos, 
the Sea of Okhotsk, and the west coast of Kamchatka are not included. 
Oceanic species in general within the 1,000-fathom curve have been 
admitted, although it is not always easy to draw the line. 

The majority of the species included will be found described in 
Fishes of North and Middle America, a 4-volume work by Jordan 
and Evermann published in 1896 to 1900 as Bulletin 47 of the United 
States National Museum. No other general work restricted to this 
continent and containing descriptions of all known species has been 
written. On that work was based the Check List of 1896 by Jordan 
and Evermann, of which the present Check List may be regarded as 
a revision. 

In the present list are given, in as natural sequence as our present 
knowledge permits, (1) the names of all species and subspecies that 
the authors admit as valid, (2) as many of the vernacular or common 
names for each species as have been readily obtainable, (3) the 
known geographic distribution of each species, (4) the reference to 
the original description of the species, and (5) the reference to every 
real synonym. If a species has been described as new but once, 
there will, of course, be but one reference (as, for example, Photo- 
corynus spiniceps on p. 509); if it has been described as new six times 
there will be six references (as, for example, Hupomotis gibbosus on 
p. 302). Thus, this work 3s really a check list of all the scientific 
names that have ever been applied to any American fish. 

As 4,139 species and subspecies are admitted as valid, and as there 
are more than 3,000 real synonyms, it appears that each American 
fish has been described as new about two times on an average. 

The first attempt at a Synopsis of the Fishes of North America was 
published by David Humphreys Storer in the Memoirs of the Ameri-

ean Academy of Arts and Sciences of Boston in 1846. That work 
enumerates 739 species distributed in 221 genera. As the fishes of 
the Rocky Mountain region, Mexico, the Pacific coast, and the West 
Indies were then scarcely known, this list was very incomplete and 
the nomenclature naturally was imperfect. 

After an elaborate survey of the Pacific coast fish fauna in 1880, 
David Starr Jordan and the late Charles Henry Gilbert published a 
Synopsis of the Fishes of North America (1882), including all species 
known north of the Mexican boundary. The 1,340 species names in 
that synopsis were arranged in 487 genera; a few other species 
appeared in the appendix. 

Jordan’s Catalogue of the Fishes Known to Inhabit the Waters of 
North America North of the Tropic of Cancer (1887) was based on 
this synopsis and includes a number of additional species. 

In the present memoir we have followed implicitly the rules of 
nomenclature laid,down by the International Commission for Zoo- 
logical Nomenclature, of which the senior author has been a member 
since 1908. One single case now under discussion (Carcharias) has 
not been disposed of fully as yet, and the view recommended by 
Jordan is adopted here tentatively. An important rule set forth by 
Jordan and Evermann in 1895 has not been acted upon. This rule 
reads: ‘‘We regard all generic names as different unless actually 
spelled alike.” In accordance with decisions of the commission, 
another rule, which we have followed, is this: ‘‘No change is to be 
made in current nomenclature unless the case is fairly clear; as, for 
example, a matter of priority.’ In general we have followed current 
practice rather than accept questionable changes. One doubtful 
opinion should not be exchanged for another. The original orthog- 
raphy of all names (misprints aside) has been retained. Some 
supposed misprints (Cypsilurus, Pachynathus, etc.) have been 
referred to the International Commission, whose verdicts have been 
followed. 

Tn accordance with the decision of the International Commission, 
we have disregarded (unless revived by later authors) the polynomial 
generic names of Gronow, Klein, Browne, and other able early 
writers, who failed to adopt the Linnean code simply because they 
had not heard of it. This decision rests not on consideration of 
justice but upon that of permanence. 

The most serious problem in taxonomy is that of the assignment 
of generic types to the genera of authors who had no conception of 
types. ‘The “‘rule of the first reviser’’ was adopted by the commission 
at Boston in 1908, and the present writers have endeavored to 
follow it. 

By far the most complete work on North American fishes is that by 
Jordan and Evermann, mentioned above—the Fishes of North and 
Middle America. In that work the authors recognized 1,113 genera, 
3,263 species, and 133 subspecies—a total of 3,396 species and sub- 
species. The check list of Fishes and Fishlike Vertebrates of North 
and Middle America, by Jordan and Evermann, based upon the above 
and published in 1896, enumerates 3,100 species arranged in 1,053 
genera, these being about double those in the Jordan catalogue of 
1887, the additions being mainly from Mexico, the West Indies, and 
the deep seas. 

The late modern period in systematic ichthyology is from 1880 to 
the present time and is especially signalized by the explorations of 


CHECK LIST OF FISHES 4 


the deep sea, of most of the continents, and of fossil beds. The un- 
exampled explorations of Eigenmann in South America belong to 
this period, as also the records of Boulenger of the fishes of South 
Africa and the varied researches of Regan in the rich material of the 
British Museum. In this period the faunas of Australia, Japan, and 
Siberia have been studied critically and successfully. Our knowledge 
of fossil fishes is assuming definite form through the work of Wood- 
ward, Zittel, Hay, Errol Ivor White, and others who have given verte- 
brate paleontology, as related to ichthyology, a constructive turn. 

We may again emphasize the distinction between the ancient and 
modern periods in animal taxonomy. Beginning with 1758, the 
date of Linnzus’s Systema Nature, for 60 years a genus was usually 
regarded merely as a convenient pigeonhole into which species were 
thrown. With Cuvier’s Régne Animal (1817) came the conception 
of arrangement ‘‘according to organization,’ or comparative anat- 
omy. With Darwin’s Origin of Species, 40 years later (1859), 
zoologists began, though slowly at first, to realize that a classification 
must be more than an inventory; that its basis must be genetic, and 
that the problems involved in natural grouping are vastly more 
complex than even great morphologists like Cuvier and Agassiz 
had realized. To paraphrase a sentence of Elliott Coues, “genera 
and species are but larger and smaller twigs of a tree, which we try 
to arrange as nearly as possible in accordance with nature’s rami- 
fications.””’ This view, applied to taxonomy, involves the extensive 
subdivision of accepted genera, many of which were in the highest 
degree unnatural. Subdivision as practiced in the present paper 
may go too far in some eases, but our material must be analyzed 
first before we can group its parts in natural synthesis. No system 
of naming can progress beyond the knowledge on which it rests. 
We may emphasize here a statement attributed to Aristotle that 
“fone should never expect a degree of accuracy which the subject 
matter does not permit.” 

Each tendency in evolution, large or small, diverging from the 
main current, should properly stand as a separate genus. 

The problem of subspecies among fishes is especially incomplete 
and confused. Most of the marine species are clearly definable and 
not often subject to intergradations. Among the fresh-water forms, 
all sorts of modifications occur. A species, in general, is a definable 
group of related individuals that have run the gauntlet of life and 
have endured. Among our river fishes we find species of different 
types. There are numerous cases of species of compact though 
often wide distribution, in which all individuals are, to all appear- 
ances, similar. Examples of this type are the common perch (Perca 
fluviatilis), the common sucker (Catostomus commersonii), and the 
minnows (Ericymba buccata and Exoglossum mazillingua). Other 
forms, which we have elsewhere called geminate or twin species, 
may be distinct enough, having a few tangible characters of difference 
in spite of general resemblance. These, for the most part, are set 
apart from each other by barriers, their distinctness proportional to 
the efficiency of the barrier. Their origin may be due to the crossing 
of these barriers by individuals from the mass of their kind, thus 
acquiring a different environment with a different type of selection. 
Illustrations of geminate species set off by isolation may be found in 
abundance, as among the trout of western America, and other species, 


4 U. S. BUREAU OF FISHERIES 


especially in the Panama region, where many geminate species are 
found on each side of the Isthmus, which has split its species from 
their mates since Miocene times. The Miocene fossil fishes of Cali- 
fornia are largely geminate in origin, twins or parents of species now 
appearing on the coast. In most cases such forms are clearly distinct 
but to all appearance ancestral, the existing distinctions apparently 
due to varying incidents of selection in varying environment. Gem- 
inate species rarely inhabit the same region, though exceptions are 
known, attributable to reinvasion. 

In many cases the distinctions between geminate forms are not 
complete, intergradations occurring along the line of the barriers or 
at different sections in climatic range. Types thus connected are 
known as subspecies. Subspecies are often nascent species; but in 
most cases a large amount of material is necessary before subspecies 
can be separated from geminate species. Among fresh-water fishes, 
each river basin shows some features of distinction, large or small, as 
does each oceanic island with regard to marine fishes. In most 
families of American river fishes studies of species have not been 
extensive enough to establish facts of intergradation. While in 
birds, reptiles, and mammals the subspecies are usually well defined 
and named, among the fishes this is still largely a matter of guess- 
work. Many authors base the recognition of subspecies not on 
actual intergradation but on guesses based on degrees of probability, 
a practice we have not followed. It has seemed to us better to regard 
related forms as distinct species until intergradation has been shown. 

We find also among river fishes, and sometimes among marine 
forms (as in Lutianus), occasional individuals that to all appearance 
are hybrids. These are marked by a distinct blending of specific 
traits. They are extremely rare, however, often known only from a 
single example. A few hybrids are known or suspected among 
certain minnows, sunfishes, and darters. The best-known hybrids 
thus far recorded in America occur among the Centrarchide, or 
sunfishes, in which group they have been studied critically by Mr. 
Hubbs. Two common species (Apomotis cyanellus and Eupomotis 
gibbosus) figure particularly as probable parents. Hybrids may give 
rise to distinct species, but no example of this is known among our 
fishes. 

Among fishes there are also occasional monstrosities, freaks, or 
“‘mutations,”’ in which certain traits may be absent or exaggerated. 
Whether such qualities may be inherited is not known. If so, it is 
likely that they would soon be swamped by breeding with the mass 
unless especially protected by segregation. It does not appear that 
any species of fishes have arisen by mutation or from hybridization, 
though the latter possibility is greater than the former. 

We may observe that compilations such as the present paper should 
constitute an exercise in modesty. Such work can never be made 
absolutely complete nor free from errors. It deals with the obser- 
vations and thoughts of great minds, as also with a degree of ignor- 
rance, carelessness, and perversity, by which names have been 
multiplied without corresponding extension of ideas. Synonymy 
(the use of different names for the same group) in general represents 
the lack of exact knowledge or else a failure (often unavoidable) to 
deal justly with the work of others. It is, therefore, as has been 
said by Doctor Coues, often ‘‘a burden and disgrace to science.” 


CHECK LIST OF FISHES 5 


Only those who have had experience in cataloguing, in a similar 
way, the species in some large group of animals or plants can appre- 
ciate the difficulties involved. In the first place, in order to make the 
list complete by the inclusion of all valid names and all real synonyms 
it was necessary to make a careful search of all ichthyological litera- 
ture. It is too much to expect that we have been entirely successful 
in this search; some names probably have been overlooked. The 
verification of the thousands of references as to the publication, 
volume, page, date, spelling, and type locality, was even more 
exacting and arduous; but most difficult of all were the multitude 
of taxonomic problems involved. In many cases existing knowledge 
is not adequate for final settlement. It is not improbable that some 
of our decisions as to the taxonomic relationships of certain species 
and the validity of others may not meet the approval of all of our 
coworkers, but that is inevitable where knowledge is incomplete. 

The present senior author, as a lifelong teacher of biology, may be 
pardoned a personal reference. Himself a student of Agassiz and 
Gill of the earlier period, he has had the honor of being also a friend, 
to some extent a protégé, of Baird, Giinther, Vaillant, Liitken, 
Hilgendorf, and Cope. In addition, he has numbered among his 
own students many of those active in systematic ichthyology during 
the late modern period. Among these are James Francis Abbott, 
Willis Stanley Blatchley, Charles Harvey Bollman, Alembert Win- 
throp Brayton, Charles Victor Burke, Howard Walton Clark*, 
Herbert Edson Copeland, Frank Cramer, George Bliss Culver, 
Bradley Moore Davis, Mary Cynthia Dickerson, Charles Lincoln 
Edwards, Carl H. Eigenmann, Rosa Smith Eigenmann, Barton 
Warren Evermann, Bert Fesler, Morton William Fordice, Henry 
Weed Fowler, Charles Henry Gilbert, James Zaccheus Gilbert, 
David Kop Goss, Ulysses Simpson Grant IV, Arthur White Greeley, 
Joseph Grinnell, Harold Hannibal, Edmund Heller, Albert William 
Christian Theodore Herre, Jennie Horning, Carl Leavitt Hubbs, 
Elizabeth G. Hughes, Oliver Peebles Jenkins, Eric Knight Jordan, 
Philip Henry Kirsch, Richard Crittenden McGregor, Ernest Alex- 
ander McGregor, Charles Leslie McKay, Seth Eugene Meek, Charles 
William Metz, Heraclio R. Montalban, George Sprague Myers, 
Edward William Nelson, Robert Newland, Masamitsu Oshima, 
Keinosuke Otaki, Charles J. Pierson, Cora D. Reeves, Robert Earl 
Richardson, Cloudsley Rutter*, Norman Bishop Scofield, Alvin 
Seale, Michitaro Sindo, Tage Skogsberg, Robert Evans Snodgrass, 
John Otterbein Snyder, Edwin Chapin Starks, Joseph Swain, Shigeho 
Tanaka, Lionel William Wiedey, Wilbur Wilson Thoburn, Joseph 
C. Thompson, William Francis Thompson, Deogracias Villiamin 
Villadolid, Yojiro Wakiya, Frank Walter Weymouth, Thomas 
Marion Williams, and Albert Jefferson Woolman.* 

Those marked with an asterisk have also been students of Doctor 
Evermann, as have also the following: Frederick Morton Chamber- 
lain, Ulysses Orange Cox, Samuel Frederick Hildebrand, Chancey 
Juday, William Converse Kendall, Clarence Hamilton Kennedy, 
William J. Moenkhaus, John Treadwell Nichols, Lewis Radcliffe, 
Josiah Thomas Scovell, and Alfred Cleveland Weed. : 

Many of these have made important contributions to our knowl- 
edge of fishes. 

The preparation of this Check List has extended over a period of 
more than 20 years. It was begun in 1906 by the senior authors,

who worked upon it from time to time, as their other duties per- 
mitted, until 1925, when they were joined by the junior author, who 
thereafter gave most of his time to the work until its completion. 
The senior authors also have devoted much of their time to it since 
1925. 

During the progress of the work the authors have endeavored to 
consult and utilize every record bearing on the fish fauna of America. 
In addition to this they have received invaluable assistance and sug- 
gestions from virtually every present-day student of American fishes, 
among whom special mention should be made of the late Dr. Charles 
Henry Gilbert and Prof. John Otterbein Snyder of Stanford Uni- 
versity, Dr. William Converse Kendall of the United States Bureau 
of Fisheries, Dr. Carl Leavitt Hubbs of the University of Michigan, 
George Sprague Myers of Stanford University, Barton Appler Bean 
of the United States National Museum, William Francis Thompson 
of the International Fisheries Commission, Dr. Arthur W. Henn of 
the Carnegie Museum, John Treadwell ‘Nichols and Dr. E. W. 
Gudger of the American Museum of Natural History, and many 
others. To all these we express our indebtedness and grateful 
appreciation. For clerical assistance of one kind or another, par- 
ticularly in looking up and verifying references, we are oreatly 
indebted to Miss Jessie E. Drayton, Harry J. ‘Christoffers, and 
Henry D. Aller, of the United States Bureau of Fisheries. Without 
the assistance so generously given by these and others, this memoir 
could hardly have been completed.

Genus 24. RHINOTRIACIS Gill. 
Rhinotriacis Gill, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sei. Phila., XIV, 1862, 486 (Rhinotriacis

‘The European synonymy of Mustelus mustelus and Cynias canis is in a state of great confusion, as 
few of the earlier writers recognized any difference between the two species externally very much alike. 

7The genus Galeus of Rafinesque was based on species with spiracles, differing from Squalus by the 
presence of an anal fin. One new species is described, Galeus melastomus, later type of Bonaparte’s genus 
Pristiurus; but on the same page and the next-page Rafinesque speaks of other species—Galeus vulpecula, 
G. catulus, and G. mustelus. It is plain that Squalus galeus L. was his intended type, after the general 
custom of writers who elevated species to the rank of genus; but he does not mention that species in the 
paper nor in his Indice, and as Squalus galeus was therefore not available as type, Jordan and Gilbert 
selected Squalus mustelus for that purpose, thus making Galeus Rafinesque a synonym of Mustelus Leach, 
rather than to displace Pristiurus. Apparently this procedure was allowable, unless some earlier author 
had chosen either Pristiurus melastomas o 1 Scylliorhinus catulus (canicula) for that purpose.

Garman, probably correctly, gives this and other genera of sharks the date of 1841. Some of them appeared 
earlier in periodicals. 

* The reasons for not accepting the names of Valmont de Bomare in scientific nomenclature are given by 
Jordan and Evermann, Genera of Fishes, I, p.27. These names (Galeus, Vulpecula, Catulus, and Mustelus) 
are binomial only by accident, and not accepted by the author himself as generic in his list of genera (1791) 
These are, however, accepted by Garman (Plagiostomia, 1913).

10 As to the authorship of the name Carcharodon, we have this information from the late Allan R. Me- 
Culloch, of the Australian Museum: 

“The name Carcharodon is not used by Smith. The earliest reference to it is that of Miiller and Henle, 
as quoted above. These authors saw Smith’s specimens (p. 33) and perhaps heard his paper read at the 
Zoological Society in September, 1837. They, therefore, quoted the name as of Smith. But Smith’s 
paper was not published until February 13, 1838, he having read Miiller and Henle’s paper about a month 
previously, in which Carcharodon appeared, and he evidently withdrew it with names he refers to in his 
paper.”’ (In lit. June 28, 1920.)

21 This name is given not as a genus, but rather as a group name of larval fishes related to the eels or to 
the Alepocephalidz, commonly known as Leptocephalus,; but Leptocephalus morrisi (type of Leptocephalus) 
is now known to bea young conger. A number of these larve (A. sicarius, cinctus, dentatus, falcidens, acus, 
opichthys, cingulus, lychnus, obtusus, and longidens) are described by Garman (Deep Sea Fishes), but they 
need not be specifically recognized here. The species called Atopichthys ensunculus Garman, perhaps 
belonging to the Alepocephalids, has been designated as the type of this group.

with Asiatic and then with European types—these having largely 
five teeth in the main row on the pharyngeals. Later follow the 
characteristically American forms, more or less degenerate as com- 
pared with the possible European ancestors, the series closing with 
aberrant forms from the same stock.

Genus 309. RICHARDSONIUS ” Girard. 
Richardsonius Girard, Proc., Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., VIII, 1856, 201 
(Cyprinus (Abramis) batleatus Richardson}. 


% The various American allies of Leuciseus Cuvier (type Cyprinus leuciscus L. of Europe, Squalius), 
we now divide among several genera, these corresponding to the subgenera in the previous check list. 
No species belonging to Leuciscus, as strictly defined, occurs in America or Asia. Many of the species, 
both in the groups allied to Leuciscus and Rutilus as well as in those related to Hybopsis and Notropis need 
comparison and verification. 

Richardsonius is here restricted to the single species, balteatus, distinguished, with its variant, by the 
very long anal fin. The genus Cheonda is provisionally recognized for species more or less similar to Rich- 
ardsonius but with the anal fin shorter. This group seems to merge into Tigoma, species with the anal 
fin short and the seales rather loosely imbricated. One species, carina, forms another intermediate type 
with short anal and very small scales. Any arrangement of these fishes must be still wholly provisional,

7 The name Notropis atherinoides was given by Rafinesque to a small and very slender miunow from 
Lake Erie. It was apparently a semi-dried example having therefore a ridge on the back as implied in 
the name Notropis. It had a long anal fin of 11 rays, and the dorsal inserted b2hind the ventrals. Among 
the small minnows of the Great Lakes it could hardly be anything else than rubellus; yet the original de 
scription is very incomplete and perhaps not identifiable. As this is the oldest name for any of the small 
American minnows with four teeth in the main row of the pharyngeals, and as distinctions of genera among 
these is especially difficult, the writers in 1896 extended the name to include them all. But this assemblage 
is hardly a natural one, as the species diverge in various directions. Hence, in this catalogue the former 
subgenera are given generic rank.

* The name Coryphznoides is older than Macrourus, the term usually applied to the species of this genus. 
The distinction between Coryphznoides and Macrourus is rather slight, the mouth in Macrourus being 
smaller and more inferior. Gilbert and Hubbs unite the two groups as Coryphxnoides. Many species 
bave been described from the deep waters of America. These we leave in Coryphzxnoides or in Macrourus 
as their describers have placed them. Some ofthe genera accepted here are of questionable value.

The specific name of the common mataguelo of Cuba is still wholly uncertain if the two forms (the 
fo from Cuba, the other from Brazil) are really distinct. The earliest specific name, ascensionis, is appar- 
veel ineligible, occurring in reprints of a pre-Linnz#an paper. The pertinence of most of the other names 

is more or less hes uncertain. Here, as elsewhere where no official decision has been made by the International 
Comission on Zoological Nomenclature, we follow the rule of not changing current nomenclature unless, 
as in matters of priority, the case is reasonably clear.

“ The family name Cybiidz may be applied to the allies of Scomberomorus and Cybium. The name 
may be preferred to one derived from Scomberomorus, as the genus Cybium is also valid. Cybiuwm com- 
mersoni, the Asiatic type of Cybium Cuvier, has but two gillrakers, while in Scomberomorus there are 8 to 
11 below the angle. Acanthocybium (giant fishes with the reticulated gills of a swordfish) should constitute 
a separate family. The earliest of the many fossils of this type are mainly allies of Scomberomorus.

character somewhat different in different genera but developed in 
all Carangidz in the narrow sense,

4 The genus Selar Bleeker was based on four species, the first named being Caranz hasselti, which isa 
species of the modern genus Atule Jordan and Jordan. It was first restricted to Scomber boops Bleeker, a 
species of Trachurops; but this restriction can not stand as boops was not mentioned by Bleeker in connec- 
tion with Selar; Caranz hasselti=affinis of the south Pacific must therefore be the type of Selar.

Family 186. ETHEOSTOMIDZ  Darters 


We begin this series with the species most nearly related to the Percidz, 
from which the darters are apparently descended. Percina is the 
most primitive genus, and in most respects the highest, the other 
forms being progressively specialized to their life in swift brooks. 
From Percina two lines diverge in different directions; the allies of 
Crystallaria and Vigil to Ammocrypta toward a quiescent life, buried 
in sand; the other through Pecilichthys, Nothonotus and Oligocephalus 
for life in weedy brooks, culminating in Microperca and Alvarius, the 
lowest forms. 


Genus 751. PERCINA Haldeman. Log perches. 
Percina Haldeman, Jour. Acad. Nat. Sci. Phila., VIII, 1842, 330 (P. 
nebulosa Haldeman=Scizna caprodes Rafinesque). 
Pileoma DeKay, New York Fauna: Fishes, 1842, 16 (P. semifasciata 
DeKay = Etheostoma caprodes Rafinesque). 


51 The European genus Sander Oken (Lucioperca Cuvier and Valenciennes) differs from Stizostedion in 
the close-set ventrals and the less close approximation of the anal spines.

% This species is usually called Roccus lineatus after Sci#na lineata Bloch (Auslindische Fische, VI, 
1792, 62); but it can not be the same. ‘The form, serre of the Bene and the stout spines of the fin, 
as well as the asserted locality (‘‘ Mediterranean’’) indicate that the species concerned is Dicentrarchus 
lwpus of Europe. The only resemblance to Roccus is found in the striped color; but Bloch says that the 
stripes on the sides are yellow.

This species, according to Metzelaar’s account, is extremely close to 
Kyphosus elegans of the Pacific, but the scales are larger; 52 in the 
lateral line (67 in elegans), the teeth are also fewer, ‘15 in upper 
jaw’’; in elegans they are ‘‘86 in each jaw.”’ 

Kyphosus metzelaari Jordan and Evermann, Proc., Calif. Acad. Sci., 
4th Ser., XVI, Apr. 27, 1927, 506, Curacao, Venezuela. 


This species with entire teeth is said to be the female of Girella tricuspidata. If this is true the genus 
Incisidens may not be tenable.

68 The 13-spined allies of Sebastodes constitute a most striking feature of the fauna of the north Pacific, 
the species being very numerous on the rocky coast of California, Alaska, and Japan; a few also in Chile. 
The species are in general well defined, showing little individual variation and no sex changes. It is ex- 
tremely difficult, however, to divide them into genera, the various traits being intertangled to a remark- 
able degree. Yet such species as paucispinis, rosaceus, and nigrocinctus could hardly stand in one genus 
ina natural system. It may be noted that the group called Sebastodes is the simplest in organization and 
=a ae oldest, four well-marked species related to Sebastodes paucispinis occurring in the upper Miocene 
° ifornia.

™ In every cold stream of northern Europe, northern Asia, and northern America species of this genus 
abound, lurking on the bottom and devouring the eggs of trout which inhabit the same waters. ‘he 
species are ill differentiated and like those of trout subject to much individual variation. Those of the 
United States and Canada are not yet well known and the number of species has probably been unduly 
expanded. Efforts to subdivide the group have not been very successful and we place all the American 
forms in a single genus, Cottus. Western species, allies of Cottus asper, termed Cottopsis, are in general 
larger in size, more prickly, with well-developed palatine teeth and the ventral rays I, 4. Those of the 
middle west allied to Cottus bairdi, called Potamocottus, show similar characters but are for the most part 
smaller and smoother, the colors more mottled. Rafinesque’s Pegedictis ictalops, the ‘‘ Cat’s-eye Spring 
fish,’ seems to us a Coltus described carelessly or more likely from memory. In New England and south 
to Pennsylvania the allies of Coftus gracilis called Uranidea are small, smooth, without palatine teeth and 
the ventral rays I, 3. But all these traits are subject to intergrading. A few species in deeper waters in 
Lake Michigan and Canada, allies of Cottus ricei called Tuuridea, are more or less rough and have the 
preopercular spine larger, hooked and somewhat spiral, otherwise much as in Cotlopsis.

* This genus is near the Mediterranean genus Chromis Cuvier, based on Sparus chromis Linnseus, a 
species with 14 dorsal spines, the head high and narrow, the tail short, the caudal not deeply forked. Fur- 
CR Telases are also closely related and usually the four groups have been united into one as Chromis 
or ‘‘ Heliastes.”’ 

0 In the closely related old world genus Pomacentrus the teeth are in two rows. Several of the species 
here accepted are of very doubtful validity, and the genera of Bleeker derived from the subdivisions of 
Pomacentrus need further study.
