the afternoon. The bucks were active and pawed many holes in 
the dry ground. 
The Rocky Mountain Black-tail or Mule Deer (Cariacus hemio- 
nus) is said . to find the western limit of its range along the east base 
of the Cascades, and the White-tail Deer is said to be found sparingly 
about the base of the mountain. 
Antelope. AntUocapra Americana, Ord. 
Klaniath Indian Name, Cha-o. 
Antelope are still fairly common on the plains and deserts east 
of the Cascade Range and on Klamath Marsh, where they are said to 
be much hunted by the Indians. In summer small bands of Ante- 
lope push through the forest of Lodgepole Pines at the east base of 
the Cascades to the narrow meadows along the upper Des Chutes 
river. On August 27, 1896, Mr.- Bailey and I saw a small herd at 
the crossing at East Fork of Des Chutes, in dense forest; and the 
next day we saw others in the small 'prairie' on Paulina Creek. 
During our stay at Crater Lake we were told that Antelope were 
seen on the pumice desert between Crater Lake and Diamond Lake. 
Alpine Flying Squirrel. Sciuropterus Alpinus (Richardson). 
Klamath Indian name, Kok-kotch. 
A specimen of this Hudsonian species was caught at Crater 
Lake by Mr. Preble. It was taken in a trap set at the base of a stub 
in open woods about a quarter of a mile from the crater. 
Klamath Flying Squirrel. Sciuropterus Klamathensis, 
Merriam. 
Klamath Indian name, Kok-kotch. 
Two specimens of this new species of Flying Squirrel were sent 
me from Fort Klamath some years ago by the late Major Charles 
Bendire. They were caught in a hollow log May 15, 1883. 
Whether or not the species ranges above the Transition Zone was 
not determined. 
Pine Squirrel. Sciurus Californicus^ Allen. 
Klamath Indian name, Go-wack. 
Common in the Transition and Canadian Zones from Fort 
Klamath half way up the mountain. Two were seen at Pole Creek,
