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

 Conte." Cataloged April 13, 1861. 



Specimens in poor condition. 



The.se specimens are regarded as cotypes, more from tradition than 

 anything else. There is nothing in the early description to show that 

 they are cotypes. They were presented to the Museum years ago by 

 Major E. L. LeConte as typical, or perhaps as original specimens. Each bears 

 two old labels, a small paper tag and a standard Smithsonian Institution 

 label. The word "Crepuscularis" is written on each of the paper tags in 

 a handwriting that we cannot identify. The large label on No. 4735 is now 

 so stained as to be illegible, but the one on the other .specimen is in 

 good condition. Its inscription: "4736 Vespertilio crepuscularis U. States 

 Maj Leconte" was obviously written by Baird.
