Microtus pennsylvanicus funebris (Dale)

1940. _Microtus pennsylvanicus funebris_ Dale, Jour. Mamm., 21:338,

August 14, type from Coldstream, 1450 ft., 3-1/2 mi. SE Vernon,

British Columbia.

Taylor and Shaw (Occas. Papers Charles R. Conner Mus., State College

Washington, 2:24, December, 1929) list under _Microtus nanus_ [=

_montanus_] _canescens_ material from Calispell Peak, Washington.

Probably the basis for this record is a specimen in the Biological

Surveys collection (adult male, 236474) taken on May 9, 1921, by G. G.

Cantwell, and labelled as Calispell Peak, 9 mi. W Locke, 3500 ft., Pend

Oreille County. An examination (by Hall and Kelson) of the specimen

discloses that it is of the species _Microtus pennsylvanicus_, and that

it falls within the geographic range ascribed to the subspecies

_Microtus pennsylvanicus funebris_ by Dalquest (Univ. Kansas Publ.,

Mus. Nat. Hist., 2:346, April 9, 1948).
