This species, described by Rafinesqae, and described and figured by Dr. Kirtland, is said to possess a lateral line, and to have red fins. Furthermore, it is known as " Carp", and reaches a length of 1 to 3 feet. It is evidently not a Moxostoma as that genus is defined by Agassi:;, but ii rtychostomus. Moxostoma becomes, therefore, a synonym of Ftijchos- tomns, and having priority must supersede it.
