tions and Surveys Pacific R. R. 11 : 63, and map, 1859.) August 

 1850. Collected by S. W. Woodhouse on exploring expedition 

 under command of Capt. Lorenzo Sitgreaves and Lt. I. C. Wood- 

 ruff, in 1849 and 1850. (See Sitgreaves' Report of an Expedition 

 down the Zuni and Colorado Rivers, p. 46, 1853.) 



Specimen formerly mounted, but now made into a modem study skin. 

 Baird, in Mammals of North America, and Woodliouse, in the original de- 

 scription, speak of skulls that have not yet lost their milk teeth. These skulls 

 cannot now be found, nor is there any record of them in the Museum catalog. 



No type designated. The two specimens procured by S. W. "Woodhouse, a 

 male and a female, both young, are not mentioned by number in Baird's 

 Mammals, but they (Nos. 4105 and 4106) are undoubtedly the two that Wood- 

 house described. The entry of 4105 in the Museum catalog reads: "[Canis 

 latrans written on line above] S juv.. Red Fork of Ark., Aug. 1850, Capt. Sit- 

 greaves, Woodhouse, Type of C. frustror," all in Baird's handwriting. The 

 other specimen, 4106 $ juv., has the same data but is not marked "Type of 

 C. frusiror." 



Heretofore the type locality of Canis frustroj- has been said to be Fort 

 Gibson, Okla. It is true that this is the only locality mentioned in the 

 original description; but Fort Gibson was merely the place where S. W. 

 Woodhouse "first saw" the animal. He does not tell where the specimens 

 came from. The actual type locality can be found only by consulting the 

 Museum catalog.
