Frank Forester's fish and fishing of the United States and British provinces of North America . h I have describedabove a.n the Truite de (irive, and is found in the same waterswith it, inoHt abundantly in I>ake Superi«»r and Lake Ilunui, but nu)rc or less commonly in all the lakes above the Falls ofNiagara. In Ontario, and, as it is believed, in the snwdlir -^^^ SALMONID^. inland waters of New York and the Eastern States, it is unknown. The head, back, andsides of the Siskawitz, above the lateral line, areof dingy brownish olive, with a greener gloss onthe upper parts, irregu-larly blotched and cloud-ed, rather than spotted, with lighter circular oroval patches of the samecolour. Below the lateralline the colour is palerand more yellow, withclusters of the same spotsfading into a dull deadwhite, which is the pre-vailing hue of the belly, with a very slight silverygloss on some of thescales. The dorsal and caudalfins are of the samegreenish brown with theback, and like it areirregularly patched withlighter spots. The pec-toral, ventral, and anal fins are paler, but with the same.

Altogether, the Si.skawit/. is u greener eoluured and lesslustrons fish than the Namaycush, and far less distinctlyspotted; still there is so iniich siniihirity, that l)y a person notnccustonud to look for nicir and more pciinanent structuraldistinctions, the two species might he wvy icadily confomidcd. In form the Siskawitz is rather shorter and stouter thanthe Mackinaw ti^h, and doi-s not ta[)er nearly so much at eitherextremity. The head particularly, which in the other is verysmall, neatly shaped, and depressed towards the snout, is short, thick, and very obtusely rounded, giving it a coarse and clumsyprotilc, and distinguishing it decidedly from the kindred species.On the shoulders it is moderately broad, with the sides some-what compressed.
