An inquiry as to the sources of the boreal faunas of Shasta reveals the 

 fact "that, so far as the mammals are concerned, Shasta may be con- 

 sidered a part of Sierra," and that in spite of the fact that the distance 

 across the Klamath Gap, which separates Shasta from the Cascades, is 

 scarcely more than half that to the Sierra — but it is deeper.

 Shasta, where several new species and sub-species of mammels are 

 described. — [L. J.
