Thus the genus Onco- rhynchus, Suckley, can be no longer maintained, unless it be considered that the cranial characters warrant its separation from Salmo ; in that case Oncorhynchus will include not only the Pacific Salmon, but the Pacific Trout also. Oiico- rhynchus is said to have a longer anal fin than Salmo, but in Fiff.
