+
+ By
+
+ JOHN A. WHITE
+
+
+The differences in anatomy and color between many species of chipmunks
+are subtle, and refined techniques are required to discover them.
+When "measuring" chipmunks taxonomically, it is necessary to use a
+"chipmunk scale" and not, for example, a "pocket-gopher scale." In
+explanation, some species of pocket gophers closely allied to each
+other, and even some subspecies of the same species, differ markedly
+in color and in size and shape of parts of the skeleton; comparable
+differences are not so pronounced among many species of chipmunks.
+
+
+ HISTORICAL SUMMARY
+
+Merriam (1905) was the first to show clearly that _Eutamias
+quadrivittatus_ is a distinct species, and pointed out that _E.
+amoenus operarius_ (= _E. minimus operarius_) is a small species
+which resembles, and is found in some areas together with, _E.
+quadrivittatus_.
+
+Howell (1929) placed under _E. quadrivittatus_ the following
+subspecies: _E. q. quadrivittatus_, _E. q. hopiensis_, _E. q.
+inyoensis_, _E. q. frater_, _E. q. sequoiensis_, and _E. q.
+speciosus_.
+
+Hardy (1945) placed _E. adsitus_ under _E. quadrivittatus_ as _E. q.
+adsitus_, and Kelson (1951) placed _E. umbrinus_ under _E.
+quadrivittatus_ as _E. q. umbrinus_.
+
+Johnson (1943) re-established _E. speciosus_ as a separate species,
+and in California left only _E. q. inyoensis_ in _E. quadrivittatus_.
+
+Thus, since 1943 the recognized subspecies of _E. quadrivittatus_ have
+been: _E. q. quadrivittatus_, _E. q. hopiensis_, _E. q. inyoensis_,
+_E. q. nevadensis_, _E. q. umbrinus_, and _E. q. adsitus_.
+
+
+ METHODS, MATERIALS, AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
+
+ Capitalized color terms, which are used in descriptions and
+ comparisons, are of Ridgway, "Color Standards and Color
+ Nomenclature," Washington, D. C., 1912.
+
+ In the synonymy of each subspecies there appears only the
+ first usage of a name, second the first usage of the name
+ combination now employed unless a new combination is proposed
+ by me, and third pure synonyms. The last is recognizable as
+ such because the type locality is appended to each.
+
+ Unless otherwise specified, all specimens are in the Museum
+ of Natural History, University of Kansas. The various
+ collections of institutions and of private persons are
+ indicated by the following symbols:
+
+ AM--American Museum of Natural History.
+ BS--United States Biological Surveys Collection.
+ CM--Colorado Museum of Natural History.
+ DC--Collection of Donald R. Dickey (now the collection of the
+ University of California at Los Angeles).
+ FC--Collection of James S. Findley.
+ KU--Museum of Natural History, University of Kansas.
+ MM--Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan.
+ NM--United States National Museum.
+ UU--Museum of Zoology, University of Utah.
+ WC--Collection of Edward R. Warren, Colorado College.
+
+ Of the external measurements, only the total length and
+ the length of the tail are recorded in table 1. Some field
+ collectors measured the ear from the notch and others from
+ the crown; most collectors measured the length of the hind
+ foot to the nearest millimeter rather than in tenths of a
+ millimeter, as would have been desired. Consequently, I
+ decided against using the lengths of the ear and hind foot in
+ the study here reported on.
+
+ The measurements of the skull were made as shown in figure 1.
+
+ [Illustration: FIG. 1. Dorsal view of skull and a lateral and
+ a medial view of the right lower jaw to show points between
+ which measurements of the skull were taken. x 1-3/4. Based on
+ _Eutamias ruficaudus ruficaudus_, from 6 mi. S St. Mary, 6500
+ ft., Glacier Co., Montana. A to A'--greatest length of skull;
+ B to B'--length of nasals; C to C'--zygomatic breadth; D to
+ D'--least interorbital constriction; E to E'--cranial
+ breadth; F to F'--inner mandibular length; G to
+ G'--condylo-alveolar length of mandible.]
+
+ A total number of 434 specimens are listed as examined in
+ this study, and additionally, numerous other specimens were
+ superficially examined in the United States Biological
+ Surveys Collection. Bacula of each of the named kinds of
+ chipmunks in this paper, were examined.
+
+ Whenever two or more samples are stated to be significantly
+ different, the meaning is that the difference is
+ statistically significant.
+
+ The geographic distribution of each subspecies and the
+ localities of specimens or series of specimens are plotted on
+ the map (fig. 2).
+
+ When comparisons were made to ascertain specific and
+ subspecific differences, only adults, or animals in which the
+ enamel was worn through on the permanent P4 and p4 were used.
+ Within this age range, only specimens in comparable pelage
+ were used to ascertain differences in color.

+ Service, Mr. Alfred Bailey of the Colorado Museum of Natural
+ History, Dr. W. H. Burt of the Museum of Zoology of the
+ University of Michigan, Dr. Stephen D. Durrant of the Museum
+ of Zoology of the University of Utah, Dr. Robert M. Stabler,
+ curator of the Warren Collection of Colorado College, and Mr.
+ James S. Findley, generously loaned specimens for my use.
+ Doctors E. Raymond Hall, Rollin H. Baker, Robert W. Wilson,
+ Keith R. Kelson, E. Lendell Cockrum, and other friends and
+ associates have given valued suggestions and assistance. My
+ wife, Alice M. White, made the illustrations and helped me
+ record and analyze the data.

+
+ _Eutamias quadrivittatus animosus_ Warren, Proc.
+ Biol. Soc. Washington, 22:105, June 25, 1909. Type
+ from Irwin Ranch, Las Animas County, Colorado.
+
+ _Type._--None designated; from along Arkansas River, about 26
+ mi. below Canon City, Fremont County, Colorado; obtained on
+ July 18, 1820.
+
+ _Diagnosis._--Size medium; dorsal dark stripes blackish;
+ sides Cinnamon to Clay Color; crown Light Drab; baculum
+ large.
+
+ _Description._--_Color pattern_: Head Cinnamon, shaded on
+ crown to Light Drab; ocular stripe Fuscous Black, with
+ Cinnamon along margins; other facial stripes Fuscous mixed
+ with Cinnamon; ears Fuscous Black, Ochraceous-Tawny on
+ anterior margin, grayish white on posterior margin and on
+ postauricular patch; dark dorsal stripes black with
+ Ochraceous-Tawny along margins; outer pair of dark stripes
+ often mainly Tawny; light dorsal stripes grayish white, outer
+ pair usually creamy white; sides Ochraceous-Tawny, shaded in
+ the region of the shoulder with Cinnamon; rump and thighs
+ Cinnamon-Buff mixed with Smoke Gray; antipalmar surfaces of
+ forefeet Cinnamon-Buff; antiplantar surfaces of hind feet
+ Pinkish Buff; dorsal surface of tail Fuscous Black, overlaid
+ with Pinkish Buff; ventral surface of tail Ochraceous-Tawny,
+ Fuscous Black along margin, Pinkish Buff along outermost
+ edge; underparts creamy white. _Skull_: Large; braincase well
+ inflated; zygomatic arches strong and slightly appressed to
+ skull. _Baculum_: Large; long and slender.
+
+ _Comparisons._--From _E. q. hopiensis_, the only other
+ subspecies in this species, _E. q. quadrivittatus_ differs
+ in: Dorsal dark stripes blackish; crown grayer; rump and
+ thighs grayer; general tone of upper parts darker.
+
+_Remarks._--Specimens from the Chuska Mountains, Zuni Mountains, and
+Blanco, New Mexico, are intergrades between _E. q. quadrivittatus_ and
+_E. q. hopiensis_, but are referable to _E. q. quadrivittatus_.
+
+In north-central Colorado _E. umbrinus_ occurs in the spruce and pine
+forests at higher altitudes, while to the south and east of this area
+_E. q. quadrivittatus_ occurs in growths of pinon in lower, semiarid
+areas. In the northern half of New Mexico and in south-central
+Colorado, _E. q. quadrivittatus_ occurs not only in semiarid habitats
+but also in the moist habitats of the forests of higher altitudes.
+Ecologically, _E. umbrinus_ thus replaces _E. q. quadrivittatus_ in
+north-central Colorado. This ecological replacement is comparable to
+the ecological replacement of _Thomomys bottae_ by _T. talpoides_ in
+Utah as shown by Durrant (1952:156).

+
+ _Description._--_Color pattern_: Head Drab-Gray, with Snuff
+ Brown around margin of crown; facial stripes Sayal Brown with
+ small blackish patches around eye; ears Ochraceous Tawny
+ anteriorly and Pinkish Buff posteriorly; dorsal stripes
+ Tawny, median one sometimes blackish; median pair of dorsal
+ light stripes grayish white, outer pair creamy white; sides
+ Ochraceous Tawny; rump and thighs Cinnamon Buff washed with
+ Pale Smoke Gray; antipalmar and antiplantar surfaces of feet
+ Pinkish Cinnamon; dorsal surface of tail Fuscous Black;
+ ventral surface of tail Ochraceous Tawny, Fuscous Black along
+ margin, Cinnamon Buff along outermost edge; underparts creamy
+ white. _Skull_: As in _E. q. quadrivittatus_. _Baculum_: Same
+ proportions as in _E. q. quadrivittatus_ but smaller.
+
+ _Comparisons._--See under the account of _E. q.
+ quadrivittatus_.
+
+_Remarks._--Topotypes of this subspecies are intergrades between it
+and _E. q. quadrivittatus_.
+
+In a large part of the geographic range of _E. q. hopiensis_ there are
+numerous, massive outcrops of Mesozoic sandstones, which tend to form
+cliffs, that are brightly colored with many shades of red. The color
+which is characteristic of _E. q. hopiensis_ seems to be helpful in
+adapting this subspecies to this habitat of red sandstone, for these
+chipmunks are generally found in the rubble and among the pinon at the
+base of the cliffs. At many places in Utah above these cliffs of red
+sandstone there are forests predominantly composed of yellow pine.
+Kelson (1951:42-43) states that "these two habitats are in immediate
+juxtaposition, the transition from one to the other often occurring in
+only a few feet ..." and again, "No one to my knowledge, has found any
+evidence in specimens from Utah of interbreeding of _E. q. hopiensis_
+with either _E. q. adsitus_ [= _E. umbrinus adsitus_] or _E. q.
+umbrinus_ [= _E. u. umbrinus_]." Benson (1935:449) states, "On Navajo
+Mountain these chipmunks [_E. q. hopiensis_] were most in evidence on
+rock outcrops surrounded by brush at the lower edge of the yellow pine
+zone. One was seen at about 9,500 feet in a south-facing rock outcrop
+near the spruce-fir forest, but no chipmunk of any kind was seen in
+the forest itself." This suggests that where only _E. q. hopiensis_
+occurs on a mountain this subspecies goes higher than on a mountain
+where _E. u. adsitus_ also occurs. This same relationship between
+_E. q. quadrivittatus_ and the subspecies of _E. umbrinus_ that occurs
+in north-central Colorado was pointed out in the account of _E. q.
+quadrivittatus_.

+
+ From _E. u. umbrinus_, the subspecies from the Uinta and

+
+_Remarks._--Howell (1929:83) stated that the specimens of _E.
+quadrivittatus quadrivittatus_ (= _E. umbrinus montanus_) from Estes
+Park, Long's Peak, and Gold Hill, all in Colorado, "average somewhat
+darker on the back and sides than typical _quadrivittatus_; the light
+dorsal stripes are also somewhat duller and the dark stripes less
+blackish, thus showing an approach to the characters of _umbrinus_."
+Now there are more specimens of _E. u. montanus_ from the mountains of
+north-central Colorado than were available to Howell. He was not aware
+of the striking difference between the bacula of _E. quadrivittatus_
+and _E. umbrinus_, and the constancy of this difference between all
+the subspecies of one species and those of the other.
+
+Although the geographic range of _E. u. umbrinus_ is closer to the
+ranges of _E. u. fremonti_ and _E. u. montanus_ than to the geographic
+range of _E. u. adsitus_, _E. u. umbrinus_ seems to be more closely
+related to _E. u. adsitus_ than to _E. u. fremonti_ or _E. u.
+montanus_. This observation may be explained by the presence of
+continuous habitat for _E. umbrinus_ between the ranges of _E. u.
+umbrinus_ and _E. u. adsitus_, whereas _E. u. fremonti_ and _E. u.
+montanus_ are each separated from _E. u. umbrinus_ by areas unsuitable
+for occupancy by _E. umbrinus_. It must be noted, however, that no
+actual intergrades between _E. u. umbrinus_ and _E. u. adsitus_ are
+known.

+
+ DISCUSSION
+
+The chipmunks that heretofore have been assigned to the species
+_Eutamias quadrivittatus_ are here assigned to two species, _E.
+quadrivittatus_ and _E. umbrinus,_ for the following reasons:
+
+1. The baculum of _E. quadrivittatus_ differs from that of _E.
+umbrinus_ in having a narrow base (see figs. 3, 4). This difference
+permits any specimen which has an associated baculum to be readily
+identified to species.
+
+2. The cranial breadth in the subspecies of _E. quadrivittatus_ is
+significantly larger than in the subspecies of _E. umbrinus_.
+
+3. Specimens of _E. umbrinus_ are darker than any specimen of _E.
+quadrivittatus_.
+
+4. Where the geographic ranges of _E. quadrivittatus_ and _E.
+umbrinus_ come close to one another (probably they meet at some
+places), _E. umbrinus_ occupies a higher position in terms of
+life-zones. Wherever either of these two species, but not the other,
+occurs on a mountain the species occupies both the higher and lower
+life-zones.
+
+ [Illustration: FIGS. 3 and 4. Baculum of _Eutamias
+ quadrivittatus quadrivittatus_, No. 35648/47919 BS; from
+ Canon City, Fremont Co., Colorado. Figure 3, lateral view of
+ right side; figure 4, dorsal view.
+
+ FIG. 5. Baculum of _Eutamias umbrinus umbrinus_, No. 38062;

+
+The differences between _E. quadrivittatus_ and _E. umbrinus_ are as
+great as, or greater than, between many species of chipmunks, such as
+between _E. minimus_ and _E. amoenus_, and between _E. quadrivittatus_
+and _E. cinereicollis_.
+
+Although I know of no ecological differences between _E. umbrinus_
+and _E. ruficaudus_, the morphological differences, as for example,
+differences in the structure of the baculum, and differences in color
+pattern, lead me to maintain _E. ruficaudus_ and _E. umbrinus_ as
+separate species.
+
+The present distribution of these two species is attributable to the
+uplift of the Rocky Mountains in the Pleistocene. That the uplift of
+the Rocky Mountains and the erosion which produced the present-day
+relief took place in Pleistocene times is supported by the evidence
+found by several geologists such as Hunt and Sokoloff (1950:109-123).
+
+The present geographic distribution of _E. umbrinus_ and _E.
+quadrivittatus_ conceivably came about as follows: _E. umbrinus_-like
+chipmunks were present, before the uplift of the major chains of
+mountains, on isolated, low mountain ranges that were not covered with
+glaciers (such as the laccolithic mountains that occur in Utah) in
+Pleistocene time, while _E. quadrivittatus_-like chipmunks were
+present in the central parts of New Mexico, Colorado, and southern
+Wyoming. With the advent of uplift, the habitats in the central
+parts of these states were changed from a plains-like habitat to
+a habitat that resembled the forest habitats that exist today.
+_E. umbrinus_-like chipmunks then invaded this newly formed habitat
+and displaced any _E. quadrivittatus_-like chipmunks that were less
+well adapted to live there. The Colorado River probably served
+as a barrier that kept the _E. umbrinus_-like chipmunks and _E.
+quadrivittatus_-like chipmunks separated up to this time. Invasion of
+the new forest-niche by _E. umbrinus_-like chipmunks may have taken
+place through the Uinta Mountains of northeastern Utah, after the
+glaciers disappeared from these mountains, since the Colorado River
+probably prevented any eastward migration farther south.

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE

+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.

+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,

+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+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 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+https://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+

+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact

+
+
+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.
