Skeleton; Formerly USNM Bone Number 26246

Note 1: Original ledger taxon for this lot was "Tilesia gracilis." At some point Tilesia was crossed out and replaced with "Eleginus." Eleginus gracilis is also the taxon on on the neck label of the alcohol specimen jar. Note 2: For the alcohol specimens: No curation has been completed, but a visual examination of the jar by looking for fish with attached tintags was completed without opening the jar to move the fish. There appear to be two specimens in the jar. One head and a tail that is presumed to go with it, and one full specimen. The head has a tin tag attached, but it has degraded somewhat and the number could not be read. There is an additional tin tag with this number in the jar, but it is not attached to either specimen.
