     summary: The five-year period prior to 1957 was the driest in the 70-year history of weather-records in Kansas (Metzler _et al._, 1958). It is interesting to note that this species had not reinvaded Smiths Branch, in Illinois, three years after the resumption of stream-flow (Larimore _et al._, 1959).

     summary: Two subspecies of _H. gracilis_ are recognized by us: one northern and eastern, characteristically inhabiting large rivers (_H. g. gracilis_), and one southern and western, characteristically inhabiting small streams (_H. g. gulonella_). One of these, _H. g. gracilis_, attains large size, and has 1) a slender, streamlined body, 2) a depressed head that is acutely wedge-shaped in profile, 3) strongly falcate fins with the dorsal and pelvic fins originating anteriorly, and 4) many scales, vertebrae, and pectoral fin-rays.
