A New Pocket Gopher (genus Thomomys), from Eastern Colorado
1951
A New Pocket Gopher (Genus Thomomys), from Eastern Colorado, published in 1951 by E. Raymond Hall, is a scientific study focused on the taxonomy of pocket gophers. Hall identifies a new subspecies, Thomomys talpoides retrorsus, based on anatomical and geographic analysis of specimens from east-central Colorado. This work clarifies previous taxonomic confusion and contributes to the understanding of mammalian diversity in North America, making it significant for scholars in mammalogy.
