Remarks. — Owing to paucity of specimens and the difficulties of 

 comparing alcoholic material with skins, previous writers have not 

 recognized Merriam's Vespertilio melanorhinus. With the better 

 series now at hand, however, it becomes clear that this animal is really 

 a form of Myotic subulatus, and not identical with M. calif ornicus as 

 had at first seemed to be the case. The name Vespertilio nitidus 

 henshawii of Harrison Allen, based on two females taken by Mr. 

 H. W. Henshaw near Wingate, N, Mex,, probably refers to the same 

 animal. These specimens appear to be no longer in the National 

 Museum collection, but two taken at Fort Wingate by Dr. R. W. 

 Shufeldt are referable to inelanorhhvm. Elliot's Myotis orinomiis 

 from northern Lower California is also a synonym of M. suhulattts 

 melanorhinus. The species has been more often collected in the por- 

 tion of its range occupied by this race than it has been in the eastern 

 United States.
