Little Chipmunk, or Long-tailed Chipmunk. 



Eutamtas quadrivittatus neglectus (Allen). 



(Gr. Eu, well or good; lamias [see ante], because this new genus is even more special- 

 ized than the older Tamias — though along the same lines. L. quadrivittatus, 

 from quadri, the combined form of quattuor, four, and vitta, a band, hence 

 4-banded, which is unfortunate, as it has 5 bands like its kin; L. neglectus 

 overlooked.)
