This report is based on the examination of 256 specimens representing

the entire known geographic range of the species. I am indebted to H.

E. Anthony, Remington Kellogg, C. C. Sanborn, and Stanley P. Young for

the privilege of examining specimens in their charge. The study here

reported upon was aided by a contract between the Office of Naval

Research, department of the Navy, and the University of Kansas (NR

History were obtained by field work supported by the Kansas University

Endowment Association.
