490 THE AMERICAN NATURALIST. [VoL. XXXII. 
I am able to add but little to Mr. Low’s account of most 
of the mammals, and have confined myself chiefly to recording 
the localities at which specimens have been taken, or the differ- 
ent species have been observed, quoting freely from Mr. Low. 
LITERATURE. 
In addition to Mr. Low’s list, the following are the more 
important references to Labrador mammalia that have lately 
appeared : 
1867. A. S. PACKARD. List of the Vertebrates Observed at he 
Labrador, by Rev. Samuel Weiz, with annotations by A 
Packard, Jr., M.D. Proc. Boston Soc. Nat. Hist. pp. E -277. 
March, 1867. 
1883. W. A. STEARNS. Notes on the Natural History of Labrador. 
Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus: Vol. vi, pp. 111-137. Aug. 1, 1883. 
1889. C. Hart MERRIAM. A New Genus and Four New Species of 
Arvicoline. North Am. Fauna. No. 2, pp. 27-35. 1889. 
(Contains descriptions of Phenacomys celatus, P. ungava, and 
P. latimanus.) 
1891. A. S. PACKARD. The Labrador Coast. N. D.C. Hodges, Pub., 
New York. (In both of Packard’s and in Stearns’s works lists 
of the Labrador mammalia are given. These lists are much alike, 
are very imperfect, and were evidently taken one from the other. 
_ They call for no special comment, except that the raccoon (Proc- 
yon lotor) is given from Square Island. This is probably an 
error, as the locality is far beyond the known northern limit of 
range of the raccoon.)
