Hispid Pocket Mouse

An adult female, not reproductively active, that was trapped in rather

sparsely vegetated rangeland to the southwest of Slim Buttes (14 mi. S

and 4 mi. W Reva) on July 19, 1961, is the only specimen of the hispid

pocket mouse on record from Harding County. Other species of small

mammals taken in the same or adjacent traplines were _Perognathus

fasciatus_, _Dipodomys ordii_, _Reithrodontomys megalotis_, _Peromyscus

maniculatus_, and _Onychomys leucogaster_.

A single individual reported from Wade, Grant Co., North Dakota, by

Bailey (1927:123), approximately 100 miles to the northeast, is the only

specimen known from a more northerly locality.
