MATCHED IN HIS MOUTH

THE sea catfishes are even more remarkable
IN their habits than the freshwater mem
bers of the family In most species the female
lays extremely large eggs, some being the size
of a small marble As soon as the eggs are
fertilized by the male, he takes them into his
mouth. The interior of his mouth is capa-
cious and by peculiar arrangement the eggs
confined to that cavity and cannot pass
into the stomach The number of eggs
ried varies between eight and fifty.
At this time the male presents very comical
appearance, as his pharynx IS SO distended that
he cannot close his mouth The length of time
during which the eggs are retained within the
mouth is unknown, but it must be considerable.
While carrying the eggs in this way the old
fish does not feed, and frequently becomes very
much emaciated from his long fast.

A REMARKABLE HABIT

ONE of the most remarkable methods OF
caring for eggs is followed by the Aspredo,
a catfish found in the fresh waters of the north
eastern part of South America. During the
time of propagation the lower side of the fiat
trunk of the female assumes a soft and spongy
texture. After having deposited the eggs. the
female attaches them to- and presses them
into. the spongy integument, by merely lying
over them. She carries them her belly
as the Surinam toad carries her her
back. When the eggs are Matched. the ex-
crescences disappear and the abdomen becomes
smooth as before.
Certain of the Loricariids, small cathshes
found in South American streams east of the
Andes. are reported to carry their eggs in
folds of their everted lips, while others are
said actually to sit on their eggs like birds.
The lau-au. catfish found in South Amer
lean rivers, is said to hatch out its young in
its abdomen, and when the young are exuded
they swim IN large shoals over the head of the
mouth. In case of danger the mother opens
her mouth, and the fry find safe retreat IN
the thorax.

Joy being gently scratched. This is very un-
usual. however.
An interesting habit of the parents observed
during the first few days after Matching is the
mixing and stirring of the masses of young
by means of the barbels. With its chin on
the bottom. the old fish approaches the corners
where the fry congregate, and with the barbels
all directed forward and aexed where they
touch the bottom, thoroughly agitates the
mass of fry. bringing the deepest individuals
to the surface The very young fry are also
taken into the mouths of the parents and
blown out, especially those which become
separated from the main lot and found in
the sand and sediment.
When the fish begin to swim they swarm
along beside the old fish just like swarm of
bees. Frequently especially when the old
one is feeding, some of the Young are taken
into the mouth; but they are instinctivey
separated from the food and spit out. Usually
the parental care ceases after the young are
able to swim freely.

THE STICKLEBACK AS A PARENT

THE male stickleback presents probably the
best known example of parental care
among fishes. Early in the mating season he
builds very ornate nest, and, after strenuous
season of combat with the other males, eventu-
ally persuades several females to deposit their
eggs in his nest. After they have finished he
unceremoniously drives them away and woe
betide the luCkless fish that ventures near
the nest The greater part of his time is now
occupied in arranging the eggs, and in tanning
them with his frs he balances himself
obliquely before one of the doors of his nest.
The Young hatch In about month, and then
he is buster than ever in trying to prevent the
fry from straying, and thus falling into the
hungry maws of possibly its own mother or
one of the many other sticklebacks that Turk
as near the nest as they dare Should one get
out, it is either driven back the old fish
selzes the truant in his mouth and carries 1t
back. Sometimes the strain proves too much
for the brave little fellow, and he gives up
his life before the young are large enough to
look out for themselves. In this event their
fate IS sealed. as there are many hungry mouths
waiting for such catastrophe.

ANCIENT FISH OF THE NILE

THE mormyres OF the Nile, which were
venerated by the aneic2t Egyptians, are
remarkable for several pecullaritles, chief
among which their electric organs, and
their ability to SWIM backward or forward with
equal facility During the breeding season the
parent fish scoop; out Il depresslol OF the
bottom of swamp, laying bare rootlets of
grasses growing in such situations, to which
the eggs attached.
Each embryo is provided with four large
cement glands situated top OF the head,
and two smaller ones on the front. lust as soon
"a the larva is Matched it rams the upper part
OF its head against the rootlets, and wrIggiing
away again, draws out from the four cement
glands four fine threads OF vlscid mucus, which
hardened by contact with the water and
form minute rope about the length OF the
body of the arva.
BY this the larva hangs suspended for four
or five days, until the yolk is absorbed. While
