_Comparisons._--For comparisons with _B. t. allex_, _B. t. canutus_, _B. t. paulus_, and _B. t. fuliginatus_, see accounts of those subspecies. From _B. t. taylori_, _B. t. analogous_ differs as follows: sides and dorsum darker, differing most in freshly prepared specimens; dorsal surface of forefeet and hind feet darker; basal part of hairs on belly darker gray; frontal bones less constricted, causing less taper anteriorly in interorbital space; interparietal wider transversely; basioccipital more expanded laterally, narrowing more abruptly at suture between basioccipital and basisphenoid. _Remarks._--The pelage of _analogous_ becomes paler with wear as pointed out by Osgood (1909:257). A paratype, U. S. Nat. Mus. 120260, and several specimens from 1 mi. S, 11 mi. W Zamora, Michoacan, are grayish rather than brownish-black. All of these are old adults having the terminal black parts of the hairs on the dorsum nearly worn away. Excluding such grayish individuals, _B. t. analogous_, like _B. t. subater_ and _B. t. fuliginatus_, is uniformly brownish-black. Both _analogous_ and _fuliginatus_ occur in relatively high mountainous country on dark soils or pedregals, and all three of the aforementioned subspecies occur in zones of high relative humidity. _B. t. analogous_ intergrades with _B. t. paulus_ (see account of that subspecies) and _B. t. allex_ south and west of Lago de Chapala in Jalisco. Additional specimens are needed from Queretaro and San Luis Potosi in order to ascertain whether or not _B. t. analogous_ intergrades with _B. t. fuliginatus_ or _B. t. taylori_. Specimens from western Jalisco, in the past referred to _B. t. analogous_, are referable to _B. t. allex_ (see account of that subspecies). Specimens obtained west of, and bordering, the Rio del Naranjo in Jalisco show a mixture of characters of both _B. t. allex_ and _B. t. analogous_. For example, specimens from 2 mi. N Ciudad Guzman resemble _analogous_ on the dorsum, whereas, on the belly, the individual hairs are white-tipped, pale gray at the base, and in over-all appearance are whitish-gray, unlike typical _analogous_ (being like _allex_ instead). The dorsal surface of the forefeet are sooty to light brownish (as in _analogous_), whereas, the hind feet are flesh-colored (as in _allex_). Another series of specimens from 4 mi. W Leon, Guanajuato, are intergrades between _B. t. analogous_ and _B. t. paulus_. These specimens are grayish to brownish on the dorsum, have sooty forefeet and hind feet (more nearly as in _analogous_ than in _paulus_), are grayish-white on the venter, and have a distinctly bicolored tail (resembling that of _paulus_ more than that of _analogous_). When the average of cranial characters is considered, both series are best referred to _analogous_.
