Through the kindness of Clement W. Meighan, I have been enabled to examine a collection of fish remains obtained from an aboriginal shellmound on Strawberry Point, a promontory on the northwest shore of Richardson Bay, Marin County, California. Richardson Bay, an arm of San Francisco Bay, extends in a northerly to northwesterly direction from Sausalito. A description of this shellmound, and an explanation of the numerical grid system employed in its excavation, have been published by McGeein and Mueller (1955: 52-3, Figs. 22-3), who designated the site 'Mrn 20.' With commendable thoroughness the excavators saved every bone encountered, and it is thus possible to present an identification of every bone rather than the more usual listing of species from a small, selected sample
