CANIS LATRANS Say.(?) 



Canis latrans. Determined by Leidy. J. D. Whitney. Aurif. Grav. of 

 Sierr. Nev. of Calif., Mem. Mus. Comp. Zool. Harvard, Vol. VI, No. 1, 

 Part 1, p. 24G. 



A tibia probably obtained from Quaternary gravels at 

 Murphys, California was referred to this species by Leidy. Some 

 doubt exists as to the locality. On the basis of more modern 

 classification of the coyotes, the specific determination might 

 also be questioned.
