Description   Henry W. Fowler (au) The region embraced in this series of comprehensive studies lies between Maryland & Texas. It comprises the faunas of the various watersheds of this part of the Atlantic & Gulf slopes. Frequent comparison with many of the drainages of the Tennessee & Mississippi valleys has been necessary & therefore much of the material reported from those areas has been re-examined. The inception of this report, however, begins with the collections made by Dr. Francis Harper from 1930 to the present time. The various lots of fishes he gathered during his many southern trips in Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, parts of Florida & Alabama, have been studied, & most of his previously-reported materials were re-examined. Very extensive noteworthy collections were made by Joseph C. Galloway, who visited Florida regularly & traveled far for more than a decade. Supplementing these are author Henry W. Fowler’s own collecting trips & excursions through the south, donations from various contributors, & finally, especially important, the work of the various members of the staff of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia in North Carolina in 1940, & of the Southern Piedmont-Coastal Plain Aquatic Survey of 1941, & again in 1942.
