Comments on the Taxonomy and Geographic Distribution of Some North American Rodents

A scientific publication released in the early 1950s. This work discusses the classification and geographic distribution of various rodent species across North America. The book serves as a detailed examination of inconsistencies in existing literature regarding the taxonomy of North American rodents and provides new insights based on specimen evaluations. The content of the book primarily focuses on the analysis of rodent specimens and their classification into different subspecies based on geographic characteristics, physical traits, and distribution patterns. The authors carefully examine several rodent taxa, including specific chipmunks and squirrels, discussing their morphological characteristics and comparing specimens from various localities. Through systematic comparisons and taxonomic revisions, the book offers a clearer understanding of the biodiversity and distribution of these rodents, contributing valuable information to the field of mammalogy and aiding in the identification and conservation of North American rodent species.
