Nelson (N. Amer. Fauna, 29:230, August 31, 1909) listed under _Sylvilagus audubonii cedrophilus_ Nelson an adult female, skin with skull (U.S. Nat. Mus., Biol. Surv. Coll., No. 108698) from fifteen miles south of Alpine, Texas. Nelson (_loc. cit._) remarked that the "bleached" color of the back and the great lateral breadth of the tympanic bullae of No. 108698 were peculiarities not possessed by any other specimen examined. Geographically, the locality of capture is far south of other known occurrences of _S. a. cedrophilus_ and approximately on the boundary separating the range of _S. a. minor_ from that of _S. a. neomexicanus_. The large size, which may have induced Nelson to refer the specimen to _S. a. cedrophilus_, is not surprising considering that the individual is a female and fully adult. A combination of new and old fur on the upper parts presents a pattern that might be duplicated in other specimens of _S. a. neomexicanus_. The lateral inflation of the tympanic bullae can be interpreted as intergradation with the geographically adjacent _S. a. minor_ to the south; _S. a. minor_ has large bullae. There are no features otherwise which suggest that the specimen is anything other than _Sylvilagus audubonii neomexicanus_ and we refer it to that subspecies.

Washington, 20:83, July 22. Nelson (N. Amer. Fauna, 29:230, August 31, 1909) listed, without comment, under _Sylvilagus audubonii cedrophilus_ Nelson, a skin with skull inside (Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist., 5419, [female] adult or sub-adult) from San Diego, Chihuahua, Mexico. We locate San Diego approximately 230 miles south and 60 miles east of El Paso, Texas. Thus, the specimen is from near the center of the geographic range of _Sylvilagus audubonii minor_. With the permission of Mr. G.G. Goodwin of the American Museum of Natural History we removed the skull. It differs in no essential features from those of other specimens of _S. a. minor_. For example, of specimens in the United States National Museum, Biological Surveys Collection, a female (No. 132002) from Guzman in Chihuahua, and a male (No. 51020) from Santa Rosalia in the same state, are almost indistinguishable from the San Diegan specimen. The specimen is without external measurements but the length of the hind foot and length of ear from the notch in the dry state (80 and 57, respectively) agree with the corresponding measurements of _S. a. minor_. Color of the skin furnishes no diagnostic character as between _S. a. minor_ and _S. a. cedrophilus_. We identify the specimen from San Diego as _Sylvilagus audubonii minor_. _Transmitted January 30, 1951._ 24-7436
