LIST OF MAMMALS; FROM OKLAHOMA AND INDIAN 

 TERRITORIES. 



BY D. G. ELLIOT, F. R.S.E. 



The specimens enumerated in the following list were procured 

 by Mr. Surber, the official collector of the Field Museum, during 

 the past winter and spring in the two territories named, with the ex- 

 ception of a few obtained in the neighboring States of Texas and 

 Kansas. The two places in which most of Mr. Surber' s work was 

 accomplished were Alva and Dougherty. The first is situated in 

 Wood County in the northern part of Oklahoma Territory, not far 

 from the Kansas line; the other in Indian Territory, about the 

 center of the Chickasaw Nation. Three other places where short 

 stays were made were Noble on the Canadian river in Cleveland 

 County on the borders of the two territories, Arnettville in Noble 

 County, and White Horse Springs, west of Alva. During the prog- 

 ress of his work Mr. Surber kept pretty full notes of the habits of the 

 various species met with, and these have been embodied in the pres- 

 ent paper, and are always signed with his initials. In all something 

 over three hundred specimens of mammals were secured, besides a 

 certain number of fish and reptiles.
