s aureogaster hypopyrrhus_ Nelson, Proc.
Washington Acad. Sci., 1:42, May 9.

_Range._--Eastern slope of Mexico from southern Tamaulipas
southward to Tabasco and Chiapas. Marginal localities
arranged clockwise beginning with the northernmost station of
record are: _Tamaulipas_: Victoria; Altamira; down the coast
to _Veracruz_: Coatzocoalcos; inland to _Tabasco_:
Montecristo. _Chiapas_: Tumbala. _Oaxaca_: Mountains near
Santo Domingo. _Veracruz_: Otatitlan; Orizaba; Jico; Jalapa.
_Puebla_: Metlaltoyuca. _Hidalgo_: Sierra Encarnacion.
_Queretaro_: Pinal de Amoles. _San Luis Potosi_: Valles.
_Tamaulipas_: Forlon. Specimen No. 51383 Chicago Mus. Nat.
Hist., labelled as from San Luis Potosi, in the State of the
same name, does not represent, I suspect, a natural
occurrence of the animal. Possibly the specimen was purchased
there in the market, but was actually captured elsewhere.

SCIURUS AUREOGASTER FRUMENTOR Nelson

1898. _Sciurus aureogaster frumentor_ Nelson, Proc. Biol.
Soc. Washington, 12:154, June 3.

_Range._--Higher elevations of the Cofre de Perote. Marginal
localities, both in Veracruz, are: Above Las Vigas; Jico.

This report is based on the examination of 256 specimens representing
the entire known geographic range of the species. I am indebted to H.
E. Anthony, Remington Kellogg, C. C. Sanborn, and Stanley P. Young for
the privilege of examining specimens in their charge. The study here
reported upon was aided by a contract between the Office of Naval
Research, department of the Navy, and the University of Kansas (NR
161-791). The specimens in the University of Kansas Museum of Natural
History were obtained by field work supported by the Kansas University
Endowment Association.
