 ^=Neotoma cinerea occidentalis Baird. See Merriam, North Amer. Fauna

572, Skin, formerly mounted ; no record of a skull. Adult male. 

 Shoalwater Bay, Pacific County, Wash. 1854, probably June. 

 Collected by J. G. Cooper. Original number 16. Northern Pacific 

 Railroad Survey. 



According to the records this specimen has been mounted. It has now 

 been prepared as a well-made study skin, which has the appearance of 

 being considerably bleached and discolored by age and exposure. The ears 

 are somewhat ragged, and a small spot on nose, another on crown, and one 

 on throat have the hair and epidermis missing. 



Type not designated by number. It is indicated as coming r'rom Shoal- 

 water Bay and collected by Cooper. In the original description the di- 

 mensions are "Head and body 10 inches. Tail vertebrae 8%-2 inches." By 

 referring to Baird's Mammals of North America, page 497, where detailed 

 measurements of the only three specimens from Shoalwater Bay are given, 

 it is seen that the above figures belong to No. 572 only, which is therefore 

 considered the type.
