WOODHOUSE’S ARVICOLA, 
HABITS. 
This animal was procured in Pennsylvania by Dr. Woodhouse, in the 
cultivated portions of that state, and probably has the same propensities 
and instincts as the other Arvicolm of North America. 
As Major Le Conte gave it no common name, we have taken the 
liberty of calling it Woodhouse’s Arvicola, after the gentleman who 
procured it.
