General tone of upper parts grayish tawny; ocular stripe pale;
skull, rostrum, nasals, and upper incisors shorter than in _E.
umbrinus_.
Baculum: Indistinguishable from that of _E. umbrinus_. This supports the
opinion of previous students that _E. palmeri_ is a close relative of
_E. umbrinus_ which occurs immediately to the north and east.
Intergradation does not occur between these two species, for, low-lying
terrain, inhospitable to chipmunks, isolates _E. palmeri_ from its
relatives. (Verbal information from E. R. Hall.)
_Specimen examined_: One from Charleston Peak, 8,000 ft., Clear
Creek Co., Nevada.
