allied to the kingfish (a); – called also bagre.

plant; – so called, perhaps, from diverting nourishment from the body
of the plant.

The lumpfish.

Any one of numerous species of North American fresh-water
cyprinoid fishes of the family Catostomidae; so called because the lips
are protrusile. The flesh is coarse, and they are of little value as
food. The most common species of the Eastern United States are the
northern sucker (Catostomus Commersoni), the white sucker (C. teres),
the hog sucker (C. nigricans), and the chub, or sweet sucker (Erimyzon
sucetta). Some of the large Western species are called buffalo fish,
red horse, black horse, and suckerel.

of the atmospheric pressure, with such force as to enable a
considerable weight to be thus lifted by the string; – used by
children as a plaything.

The embolus, or bucket, of a pump; also, the valve of a
pump basket.

A suckling; a sucking animal.

A pipe through which anything is drawn.
