As far as relates to the North American insectivora, the preceding table is by no means accu 

 rate in its indications. Thus, while it gives eight genera, as found in the United States, two 

 of them, Crossopus and Crocidura, do not belong there at all ; while Otisorex and Corsira are 

 synonymes of Sorex, and Brachysorex, and probably Cryptotis belong to Blarina. I do not 

 know what species he refers to under the genera of Talpasorex and Hydrogale.
