4735 and 4736: Skins with skulls inside. " U. States, Maj. Le Conte." 

 Catalogued April 13, 1861. 



Specimens in poor condition. 



These specimens are rejrardeil as cotypes, more from tradition than anytliinf^ 

 else. Tliere is nothing in the early description to show that they are cotypes. 

 They were presented to the .Museum years ago by Major Le Conte as typical, or 

 perhaps a.s original specimens. The specimens bear two old labels each, one 

 marked ^'(.Wjmsnilarl.'f,^' the other " Venpertllio ' crepui^cularix,' " each in dif- 

 ferent handwriting. The latter is j>robably Secretary Baird's handwriting and 

 seems to Ise identical with that of the entry in the catalogue.
