About This Book

The author describes two previously unrecognized subspecies of the Mexican meadow mouse from Michoacán, giving type localities, elevation ranges, and specimen counts; he presents detailed morphological diagnoses with skull and dental characters, comparative measurements, and illustrated skull figures. Differences from nearby subspecies are emphasized in size, pelage tint, cranial proportions, incisive foramina, zygomatic form, and tympanic bulla development. Habitat and trapping notes accompany metric tables and specimen repository information, and the paper closes with formal names, comparisons, and acknowledgments for loans and field assistance.
