Paperback, [EAN: 9781331948865], Forgotten Books, Forgotten Books, Book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Forgotten Books, Excerpt from Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia: 1887A New Species of Catfish (Ictalurus). - Prof. Angelo Heilprin described a species of catfish from Lake Okeechobee, Florida, which differed in several well-marked characters from the various other North American species that had hitherto been described. The species is most nearly related to Ictalurus lacustris, the "catfish of the lakes," which it generally resembles. The color over the greater part of the body is blue-black, varying to black on the back, and white on the ventral surface; the barbels of one of the inferior pairs are white, and nearly so in the second pair. The dorsal fin is situated nearer to the adipose fin than to the snout; humeral process moderately long, about one-half the length of the pectoral spine; tail deeply forked, the upper lobe barely longer than the lower one. Length of largest specimen caught, about 20 inches. It was proposed to name this species Ictalurus Okeechobeensis.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
