Conneticut 0, Fish Gi New Species Discovered In SC River By Charlotte Anderson Staff Writer A species of fish never recorded before has been discovered by a USC graduate student. The fish, along with more than a hundred other distinct species from South Carolina rivers, ' has just been shipped to the U. S. National Museum at Washington, D. C. For approximately seven years, Dr. W. H. Freeman of the Uni versity's biology department has been collecting these fish to be used in scientific study. Carolina's Rivers Dr. Freeman and several of his graduate students have explored about half of South Carolina's rivers-among them the Saluda, Congaree, Santee, Wateree, Edisto, Savannah and the Combahee in order to create a distribution pic ture of native fish. During this period about 8,000 jars of fish had been catalogued and the increasing size of the col lection had become a major prob lem. No More Space The University no longer had space available to house the speci mens, and loaning the collection to other state institutions for study was rendered impossible by the costly and time consuming problem of shipping. A loan service plan offered by the Smithsonian Institute pro posed a solution to the problem. The museum allots space for hous ing such collections and arranges for shipment of the specimens to various parts of the U. S. where they are studied by scientists. Most Value "I wanted to put the collection where it would be of the most value to the most people," stated Freeman, "and I needed more space to store new Specimens which will be gathered from other S. C. rivers in the next few years.' Last week Smithsonian biolog ists Dr. Ernest Lachner and Dr. William Taylor with two assis tants drove from Washington in a specially equipped truck to pick up the majority-6,500 jars-of the collection. Dr. Lachner and Dr. Taylor were guests of the University at this time. Drs. Derrick and Randall, now at Appalachian State Teachers College, and Copley Smoak and W. 0. Anderson, USC graduate students, are the biologists who have aided Freeman in this exten sive undertaking. Anderson Discovery It was Anderson who discovered the unknown species in the Comn hahee. South Carolina's specimens pro bably compose the largest single collection at the U. S. National Museum from the Southeast. CAMPBELL PHAR Corne!
