_Putorius streatori_ Merriam, N. Amer. Fauna, 11:14, June 30, 1896.
_Type._--Male, subadult, skull and skin; no. 81998, U. S. Nat.
Mus., Biol. Surv. Coll.; Trout Lake, Klickitat County, Washington;
February 3, 1897; obtained by P. Schmid, original no. 147.
The skin is in brown winter pelage, and appears to have been made
up from a skin split along the midventral line from the anus to
the forelegs. It probably was dried by a trapper, is well made,
and lacks a patch of hair on the left flank but otherwise is in
good condition. The skull lacks the central part of the left
zygomatic arch and the posterior two-thirds of the right one. The
right m2 is represented only by an abortive stump or the broken
root, and i1 and i2 on each side are absent; otherwise, the teeth
all are present and entire.
_Range._--Cascades of Washington from northeastern King County
south to Mount Adams. See figures 25, 27 on pages 95, 149.
