+
+
+In the spring of 1950, a field party from the University of Kansas
+Museum of Natural History including J. R. Alcorn, W. J. Schaldach, Jr.,
+George Newton, and the author collected mammals in the Mexican state of
+Coahuila. A few days were spent in the Sierra del Carmen. One morning
+when examining sets for pocket gophers in these mountains, Alcorn found
+a mole caught in one of the traps. Subsequent examination discloses
+that this specimen belongs to a heretofore unknown species which may be
+named and described as follows:
+
+
+=Scalopus montanus= new species
+
+ _Type._--Male, adult, skin and skull plus body skeleton; no.
+ 35668, Univ. Kansas Mus. Nat. Hist.; Club Sierra del Carmen,
+ 2 mi. N and 6 mi. W Piedra Blanca, Coahuila, Mexico; 7 April
+ 1950; obtained by J. R. Alcorn, original no. 11093.
+
+ _Range._--Known only from the type locality; probably found
+ in other localities in the Sierra del Carmen of northern
+ Coahuila, Mexico.
+
+ _Diagnosis._--Size medium and slender for the genus (see
+ measurements); tail medium in length, sparsely covered with
+ whitish hairs; claws of forefeet slender; upper parts near
+ (h) Buffy Brown (capitalized color terms after Ridgway,
+ Color Standards and Color Nomenclature, Washington, D. C.,
+ 1912), with slight rufous wash on top of head; underparts
+ resemble upper parts but slightly paler with longitudinal
+ band of near (14) Sudan Brown extending from chin
+ posteriorly to and around base of tail, less intense on
+ breast; skull small, arched, and relatively slender
+ especially across mastoidal region; posterior part of
+ cranium depressed; foramen magnum low when viewed from rear;
+ external pterygoid region not greatly expanded; teeth small,
+ especially upper third molar.
+
+ _Comparison._--From _Scalopus aquaticus_, of which ten
+ subspecies have been seen including those of significant
+ geographic position, _S. montanus_ differs in: Skull
+ slenderer, less angular and relatively narrower across
+ mastoidal region; cranium arched with hind part flattened;
+ external pterygoid region less expanded; teeth relatively
+ small, especially last upper molar. From _S. inflatus_,
+ known to me from Jackson's description (N. Amer. Fauna,
+ 38:53-54, pls. 2, 3, September 30, 1915), _S. montanus_
+ differs in: Skull less angular and slenderer, prelachrymal
+ region not inflated; zygomata slenderer.
+
+_Remarks._--_S. montanus_ is known from a single specimen, which
+represents the second known occurrence of the genus _Scalopus_ in
+Mexico. The other occurrence is that of _S. inflatus_ in the state of
+Tamaulipas. _S. montanus_ is geographically isolated in mountainous
+country from other species of _Scalopus_. Ten of the recognized
+subspecies of _S. aquaticus_ were available for examination and
+descriptions of others were studied. It was found that the number and
+magnitude of the differences separating any one of these subspecies
+from an adjoining one was less than those separating _S. montanus_ from
+_S. a. texanus_ and _S. a. intermedius_, which are, geographically,
+closest to _S. montanus_. _S. montanus_ seems not to be closely related
+to _S. inflatus_ of Tamaulipas. _S. montanus_ is given specific rank
+because of the great degree of difference between it and its nearest
+relatives, and because of its geographically isolated position.
+
+The specimen of _S. montanus_ was taken in a tunnel found by digging
+away a mound thought to be that of the pocket gopher, _Thomomys
+sturgisi_. A trap set in one direction in the tunnel caught the mole; a
+trap set in the other direction in the tunnel was later covered with
+soil, evidently by a gopher. After the capture a thorough inspection of
+the area revealed no "raised" tunnels, typical of _Scalopus_. A series
+of _Thomomys_ was taken in this area in sets placed in tunnels found
+under similar mounds. This locality was near the headquarters of the
+Club Sierra del Carmen in a parklike stand of oak timber in a canyon, at
+an elevation of 4950 ft. as recorded by our altimeter. The plant
+association was judged to be characteristic of the Upper Sonoran
+Life-zone, not far below the beginning of the Transition Life-zone. The
+area was heavily grazed by goats, hogs and horses and had little grass
+or other ground cover under the trees. The soil in this canyon was not
+deep and consisted of a rocky, marly mixture, pale red in color,
+evidently produced by weathering of the reddish volcanic rocks
+bordering the canyon.
+
+The Sierra del Carmen is a high, igneous range, surrounded for the most
+part by Lower Sonoran plains and desert. Zoologically, these mountains
+are poorly known. Few collectors have been in the area; most of these
+have been afforded accommodations through the Club Sierra del Carmen
+(Carmen Mountain Hunting Club), the members of which have been
+especially interested in assisting naturalists. Several kinds of
+mammals are known only from this "biological island" including the
+pocket gopher mentioned above and the shrew, _Sorex milleri_. The
+finding of a mole in the higher elevations of this range suggests that
+moles may occur in other mountainous areas of Mexico.
+
+Assistance with field work is acknowledged from the Kansas University
+Endowment Association.
+
+ _Measurements._--The adult, male holotype measures as
+ follows: Total length, 150; tail vertebrae, 27; hind foot,
+ 20; greatest length (of skull), 32.2; palatilar length,
+ 13.8; mastoidal breadth, 16.2; interorbital breadth, 7.0;
+ maxillary tooth-row, 11.3; greatest depth of skull including
+ auditory bullae, 9.4; weight, 38.6 grams.
+
+ _Specimen examined._--One, from the type locality.
+
+In studying _Scalopus aquaticus texanus_, I noted that Allen (Bull.
+Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist., 3:221, April 29, 1891) based the original
+description on a single, unsexed specimen taken in Presidio County,
+Texas, by Wm. Lloyd in September, 1887. Later, Allen wrote (Bull. Amer.
+Mus. Nat. Hist., 5:200, August 18, 1893) that a series of moles from
+Rockport, Aransas County, Texas, agreed essentially with the type. True
+(Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 19:22, December 21, 1896) believed that the
+type was actually from Aransas County rather than Presidio County. This
+belief was shared by later workers. In checking the literature, I find
+that the collector of the type, Wm. Lloyd, who was obtaining specimens
+for George B. Sennett at the time, took other mammals in September as
+well as in October of 1887 in Presidio County (see Allen, Bull. Amer.
+Mus. Nat. Hist., 3:221, 223, 224, April 29, 1891) and birds there in
+June of 1887 (see Sennett, Auk, 5:43, January, 1888). I can find no
+evidence that Lloyd collected in or near Aransas County in 1887 and see
+no reason for doubting that the locality, Presidio County, as written
+on the original label of the type of _S. a. texanus_ is correct. Mr. M.
+J. Carroll of the Texas State Historical Association advises me that in
+1887, Presidio County was reduced to its present size by the creation
+of Brewster and Jeff Davis counties. Lloyd might have taken the mole in
+any one of these three Trans-Pecos counties. Even so, these counties
+are widely separated geographically from the range of other moles
+designated as _S. a. texanus_ (see Davis, Amer. Midl. Nat., 27:386,
+March, 1942). The taking of _S. montanus_ in the Sierra del Carmen
+immediately south of Trans-Pecos Texas leads me to think that Lloyd's
+mole might have been taken in a mountainous region within one of the
+three counties mentioned above. A description of _Scalopus aquaticus
+texanus_ Allen follows:
+
+
+=Scalopus aquaticus texanus= Allen
+
+ _Scalops argentatus texanus_ Allen, Bull. Amer. Mus.
+ Nat. Hist., 3:221, April 29, 1891.
+
+ _Type._--Sex unknown, adult, skin no. 3488, skull no. 2740,
+ Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist.; Presidio County, Texas; September,
+ 1887, obtained by Wm. Lloyd.
+
+ _Range._--Limits of range in Trans-Pecos Texas unknown.
+
+ _Diagnosis._--Size small; rostrum heavy and broad; lower
+ jaws heavy; palatine space wide with upper tooth-rows arched
+ laterally; teeth large, especially fourth premolar and
+ molars.
+
+ _Comparison._--From adults of comparable age from Rockport,
+ Aransas County, Texas, _S. a. texanus_ differs in: Rostrum
+ broader and heavier; lower jaws heavier; palatine space
+ wider, with upper tooth-rows more arched laterally;
+ individual teeth in both jaws larger, especially fourth
+ premolar and molars. From _S. a. intermedius_, which is
+ geographically nearest to the northeast (adult specimens
+ from Meade, Clark and Barber counties, Kansas, and Dewey
+ County, Oklahoma), _S. a. texanus_ differs in: Size smaller;
+ rostrum less massive and shorter; tooth-row shorter.
+
+_Remarks._--The type has been previously examined by True (_op.
+cit._:44). The skin is faded and of little taxonomic worth. The
+anterior part of the skull is present along with both upper tooth-rows
+and most of the lower jaws. The teeth are well worn, indicative of old
+adulthood. In size, _S. a. texanus_ appears closest to moles from
+southern Texas (Rockport) which previously were assigned to the
+subspecies _Scalopus aquaticus texanus_. The tooth-rows are of the same
+length, but the individual teeth of _S. a. texanus_ are significantly
+larger.
+
+The moles in southern Texas previously ascribed to _Scalopus aquaticus
+texanus_ seem to be without a name and may be known as follows:
+
+
+=Scalopus aquaticus alleni= new subspecies
+
+ _Scalops texanus_, Allen, Bull. Amer. Mus. Nat. Hist.,
+ 5:200, August 18, 1893.
+
+ _Scalops aquaticus texanus_ True, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus.,
+ 19:21, December 21, 1896.
+
+ _Scalopus aquaticus texanus_ Jackson, N. Amer. Fauna,
+ 38:50, September 30, 1915; Miller, U. S. Nat. Mus.,
+ Bull. 128:15, April 29, 1924; Davis, Amer. Midl. Nat.,
+ 27:386, March, 1942.
+
+ _Type._--Male, adult, skin no. 7189, skull no. 5788, Amer.
+ Mus. Nat. Hist.; Rockport, Aransas County, Texas; 29 January
+ 1893; obtained by H. P. Attwater.
+
+ _Range._--Southern Texas, north to Bexar County and east to
+ Refugio County (see Davis, _loc. cit._).
+
+ _Diagnosis._--Size small; according to Davis (_loc. cit._),
+ "... length of hind foot seldom more than 19 mm.; total
+ length seldom more than 140 mm. Skull small and flat, seldom
+ exceeding 33 mm. in occipitonasal length and seldom
+ equalling 10 mm. in depth; maxillary breadth usually less
+ than 10 mm.; alveolar length of maxillary tooth row seldom
+ more than 10.5 mm."
+
+ _Comparison._--From _S. a. cryptus_, geographically adjacent
+ to the east, _S. a. alleni_ differs in: Size smaller; color
+ paler; skull smaller and flatter. From _S. a. intermedius_,
+ geographically adjacent to the north, _S. a. alleni_ differs
+ in: Size smaller; skull smaller and flatter with shorter
+ tooth-row (see Davis, _op cit._:384, 385). For comparison
+ with _S. a. texanus_, see account of that subspecies.
+
+_Remarks._--This mole is named in honor of Dr. J. A. Allen in
+recognition for his work on Texas mammals. Grateful acknowledgment is
+made to those in charge of the collection of Recent mammals in the
+American Museum of Natural History for permitting me to examine the
+moles from Aransas County and the type specimen of _Scalops argentatus
+texanus_ Allen.

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
