CATALOG OF TYPE SPECIMENS OF MAMMALS 161 



Hair on lower back and belly slougbed off ; otherwise alcoholic in good 

 ■condition ; skull with central part of each zygoma broken out, right orbital 

 region and right side of rostrum injured. 



This may be considered as the type because it is the first one mentioned 

 in Harrison Allen's list of three individuals, and the only alcoholic 

 specimen among them. Furthermore, Miller (North Amer. Fauna 13: 88) 

 definitely chose it as the type. Of the original three specimens, the two 

 others, Nos. 5509 and 5910, came from Poso Creek, Kern County, Calif., and 

 are dry skins.
