[_Vespertilio gryphus_] var. _septentrionalis_ Trouessart,
Catal. Mamm. viv. foss., p. 131, 1897, type from Halifax,
Halifax Co., Nova Scotia.
_Myotis keenii septentrionalis_, Miller and Allen, Bull. U.
S. Nat. Mus., 144:105, May 25, 1928.
_Distribution in Nebraska._--Known from limestone quarries
in Cass and Sarpy counties. Probably in other parts of
extreme eastern Nebraska.
_Records of occurrence._--Specimens examined, 35, as
follows: CASS CO.: 1 mi. NE Louisville, 4. SARPY CO.: 1/2
mi. W Meadow, 31 (some of these specimens have been
deposited in other collections as follows: Private
Collection of P. H. Krutzsch, 3; Private Collection of W. G.
Frum, 2; Nebr. Game, Forestation and Parks Comm., 1; Univ.
Kansas Mus. Nat. Hist., 2; Univ. Nebr. State Mus., 7).
_Remarks._--Although not so common as _Pipistrellus_ in the limestone
quarries, hibernating bats of this species frequently are found there,
usually as solitary individuals either in drill holes or clinging to
the walls of the quarries; occasionally, however, two or three bats
have been found together in a single drill hole.
