Abstract

of the yellow perch (Perca flavescens), the white sucker (Catostomus commersoni), and the black bullhead (Ictalurus melas). The smallest collection, from the Butler Spring locality, contained two other species, a gar (Lepisosteus sp.) and probably the channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), which were also found at the Berends locality (Table I). Presumably, more collecting at the Doby Springs and at the Butler Spring localities would yield more species common to all three localities. The Doby Springs deposits contain several species of minnows not found at the Berends site and this possibly indicates that the locality was more of an upstream, pond situation with smaller streams flowing into it. The absence of the drum, gar, and channel catfish would seem to bear this out. LITERATURE CITED
