Variation ik the Type ash Cotypes op Cottus No. mi. type; nos. 120-128, cotypes. This species seems to be related to ('ottus beldingi ami to < 'ottus spilotw. From the former il may be distinguished by the much larger eye, the narrower interorbital, the blunter head, the fewer anal rays, and the coloration; from ('ottus spilotus it would seem to differ in the shorter anal, the more complete lateral line, in coloration and in other respects. The collection contains 217 specimens, which we refer to this species. They vary in length from less than 1 inch to inches. The collector's label, which should have accompanied these specimens, has been lost, but it is certain that they came from fresh water al boring. Alaska, and that they were collected by Mr. F. M.
