Ursus dalli. Yakutat Bear. 
Hab., Alaska. 
The male of a pair of young bears purchased in August was 
captured on June 13th at Pavloff Bay, on the peninsula 
of Alaska, the female having been secured at Stepavak 
Bay, some miles to the northeast, on May 21st. As the 
characters to which the somewhat questionable division 
of the big Alaska bears into species and subspecies is due, 
lie in the skull, the assignment of living cubs is uncertain. 
Pavloff Bay being the type locality of Ursus dalli gyas 
Merriam, it is probable that our specimens belong to 
that form, one of the largest of these huge bears and 
doubtfully distinct from U. dalli.
