Excerpt from Catalogue of the Fishes in the British Museum, Vol. 6 The Salmonidae and the vast literature on this family offer so many and so great difficulties to the Ichthyologist, that as much patience and time are required for the investigation of a single species as in other fishes for that of a whole family. The ordinary method followed by naturalists in distinguishing and determining species, is here utterly inadequate and I do not hesitate to assert that no one, however experienced in the study of other families of fishes, will be able to find his way through this labyrinth of varia tions without long preliminary study, and Without a good collection for constant comparison. Sometimes forms are met with so pecu liarly and so constantly characterized, that no ichthyologist who has seen them will deny them specific rank; but in numerous other cases one is much tempted to ask whether we have not to deal with a family which, being one of the most recent creation is composed of forms not yet specifically differentiated.
