ADDITIONAL SPECIES WHICH MAY OCCÜR IN KENTUCKY. 



The following list is made up of species which have 

 been found in States adjacent to Kentucky and of such as 

 are known to be generally distributed in the Eastern Unit- 

 ed States, and hence are likely to occur here. The white- 

 bellied swallow, the geographic turtles, and others, un- 

 doubtedly live within our boundaries, but I have no au- 

 thoritative records to this effect at hand, and prefer to place 

 them for the present under the above heading. 



MAMMALS. 



1. Weasel (Putorius nivalis, Linn.). 



2. Little Striped Skunk (Mephitis putorius, Linn.).
