1837.—Bachman, JDid., p. 403. His L. virginianus changed to L. americanus, and the name L. sylvaticus 
bestowed upon the L. americanus of his former paper. Here the L. sylvaticus receives its 
first distinctive name, it having previously borne the name L. americanus (the name given it 
by Desmarest), whenever distinguished from the true L. americanus, with which it was for 
a long time confounded.
