'*â '"â f^haamistes fe"uiidus Jokdax, p. 150 of the present work. Since pages 149-151 of the present work were in press, I liave care- fully reeompared Cope and Yarrow's description and figure of their Cato- stomus fceundus, aud my notes on their typical specimens, with the speci- mens on which the genus Chasmisfes was based, and I have come to the conclusion, hinted at iu the text, that the Chasmistes is a species distinct from C. fecundus, and thus far undescribed. The specific name liorus [hto^, smooth; o/?"?, border) is therefore proposed for it, iu allusion to the smooth lips. ' 'ij,' 28 (&). CATOSTOMUS FECUNDUS Cope(fc Farrow.

As stated above, I at first identiflid Chasmitiies lioruf from Utah Lake with this species from the same waters, the two being very sim- ilar as to scales and fins, and the form of the mouth and snout in the flS'iie of suggesting, though not resembling, the form of those parts in Chasmifttes.
