E. LÖNNBERG, MAMMALOGY OF ECUADOR. 3 



nolestes. To the »Paramo» belong the alpine Paca, Sylvilaqns 

 andinus and perhaps some others. It is of oourse no need 

 to point out, that these species only are to be regarded as 

 samples of the resp. faunal districts. Of most interest are 

 sucb cases in which members of the same genus substitute 

 each others in different regions as with regard to Nasna, 

 Coelogenys, Mazama etc.
