Book Description
Excerpt from Revision of the Shrews of the American Genera Blarina and Notiosorex; The Long-Tailed Shrews of the Eastern United States; Synopsis of the American Shrews of the Genus Sorex The Short-tailed Shrews of America belong to two genera - Blurinu and N otiosorex. Of the former, 14 alleged species have been described; of the latter, only 2. Respecting the status and geographic ranges Of these species much confusion exists. In order to obtain authentic information on these points the Department has made a special effort to secure large series of specimens, and has sent trained collectors to most of the original type localities of the forms that have been named. Moreover, one of the field naturalists of the Division of Ornithology and Mammalogy, Mr. E. W. Nelson, while conducting biological explora tions in Mexico, has obtained a number of new species. As a result, upward of 600 specimens of the United States species and more than 200 of the Mexican Species are now before me.1 Either the original types, or duplicate types obtained from the original type localities, of all the United States and Mexican Species have been examined. The conclusions derived from a study of this material are embodied in the present paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Taxonomic Review of American Long-Tailed Shrews (Genera Sorex and Microsorex) A gopher trapped in a tunnel made by the animal was discovered to have a small opening in its side with parts Of the intestines gone and immediately upon discovering this fact I removed the Specimen and replaced it with a small trap baited with some of the remaining portions of the intestines. An hour later the trap was visited and found to be holding fast one of these little shrews. The hole in which the trap was placed was thoroughly covered with dirt, in such manner that no animal could possibly have entered at that particular place.
