F. _Range._--Probably all of state except low coastal area. _Specimen examined_, 1: no. 100126, 3 mi. NW Pátzcuaro, 6,700 ft. _Remarks._--The short tail of our specimen, an adult male, is noteworthy as perhaps also is the breadth between the orbits. External measurements are 338, 101, 39. It weighed 308 grams. Selected cranial measurements are: Basilar length, 44.1; zygomatic breadth, 32.4; postpalatal length, 26.6; least interorbital breadth, 13.8; height of cranium, 16.0. The specimen was trapped in a hole in a stone fence. Howell (1906:23), under the name _Spilogale gracilis_, recorded another male from Pátzcuaro. =Mephitis macroura macroura= Lichtenstein Hooded Skunk; Spanish, Zorrillo or Mofeta Rayada; Tarascan, Cuitziqui (Kweetzeke) _Mephitis macroura_ Lichtenstein, Darstellung Neuer oder wenig bekannter Säugethiere pl. 46, 1832, type from mountains northwest of México City. _Range._--Statewide. _Specimens examined_, 12: nos. 100114-100125, distributed with reference to Pátzcuaro, as follows: 3 mi. NW, 6,700 ft., 1; 2 mi. W, 7,600 and 7,000 ft., 2; 3-1/2 mi. S, 7,900 ft., 1; 4 mi. S, 7,800 ft., 2; 5 mi. S, 7,800 ft., 5; 9 mi.

Most of our specimens were caught in steel traps, some along the edges of cornfields, others along the highway and along the pole fences. Tarascan friends at Colonia Revolución were eager to have the bodies of the skunks which we caught. They regarded the skunks as a delicacy and told us that this food was reputed to be good for a person's blood and complexion. =Conepatus mesoleucus nelsoni= Goldman Hog-nosed Skunk; Spanish, Zorillo Real _Conepatus mesoleucus nelsoni_ Goldman, Jour.
