SUMMARY OF THE ZOOLOGICAL COLLECTIONS. 
rustyish gray, and varying from that to very dark; I have seen some specimens 
almost black. The owl, (Athene hypogea,) which is the constant companion of the 
prairie dog, was also found among these animals in considerable numbers. 
158. Mephitis ———. .......... Camp 104, Pueblo creek, New Mexico. 
This Vue was s intérrhodiute 1 in size between the common Mephitis chinga and the 
Mephitis zorilla of Mexico. Its general color was black, with a white line on each 
side, white forehead, and the tip of the tail white. It was the only specimen 
observed.

163. Antilocapra Americana, (skin)......... San Francisco mountains, New Mexico. 
164. Ovis aries, (skull) New i 
This specimen was procured on account of its peculiarity i in having four horns, 
that are well developed, being about eight inches in length; one on each side erect, 
and one turned downwards. It is said that, many years ago, the proprietor of an 
extensive hacienda on the Rio Grande owned a vast number of sheep possessing this 
peculiarity, and that the number of horns to each individual was never less than 
three, and often as many as seven. His flock was driven off by the Navajo Indians, 
who still graze large numbers of these animals in the mountains of New Mexico, 
and among which exist many anomalies of this kind.
