The IdahO' Hare is foimd from Idaho to northeastern Cali- 

 fornia, a skin from Goose Lake being in the National Museum, 

 and I saw a mounted specimen in Susanville which was probably 

 of this species, but was unable to examine it closely. Dr. Mer- 

 riam says that the Idaho Hare is strictly nocturnal and inhabits 

 badger holes. It might therefore be common in a region and yet 

 remain unknown.
