COMPARATIVE ANATOMY OF THE 
SUBGENERA OF THE AMERICAN 
WOOD RAT (GENUS NEOTOMA) 
By A. BRAZIER HOWELL 
U.S. Biological Survey 
The comparative anatomy of Genus Neotoma pre- 
sents a complete study, concisely and simply of a 
common mammal; made comparative in order that 
it may be of greater technical value, and that more 
might be learned regarding anatomical variation to 
be expected within the closely related groups of 
mammals which are termed sub-genera. A de- 
tailed comparative treatment is provided, and the 
book is copiously illustrated with drawings and 
cuts, some in colors. 
Cloth, gold stamped. 6x9. 225 pages. 
Eight color plates. Thirty illustrations. 
Bibliography. Index.
