NE [3 mi.] Ogden, Weber County, and extends the known range of this
species in Utah approximately 100 miles northeastward. This pipistrelle
probably inhabits all of northern and northwestern Utah in suitable
habitats. This probability is supported by Davis' (1939:120) report of
a specimen from Salmon Creek, eight miles west of Rogerson, Twin Falls
County, Idaho. See also Krutzsch and Heppenstall (1955:127) who record
a specimen from, eastern Utah as far north as, Desert Springs which is
10 mi. SW Ouray, Uintah County.
_=Corynorhinus rafinesquii pallescens=_ Miller. Long-eared
Bat.--Formerly, the northernmost record of the long-eared bat in Utah
was from east of Springville, Utah County. Specimens are now available
from Goldhill, Tooele County, and from South Fork, Ogden River, Weber
County. Professor J. S. Stanford, Department of Zoology, Utah State
Agricultural College, informed us (by letter) that this bat is the
common cave bat in Logan Canyon, Cache County. This northern extension
of known area of occurrence of approximately 100 miles indicates that
it probably is state-wide in distribution in suitable habitats. It can
be inferred from Hall (1946:161) that the range of _C. r. intermedius_
in Nevada extended northeastward into northwestern Utah, and Davis
(1939:124) reported specimens from Bingham and Bannock counties, Idaho,
that he referred to the above mentioned subspecies. This led Stanford
to comment (_in litt._) that bats of this species from northern Utah in
Cache County might be _C. r. intermedius_. Insofar as we are aware, _C.
r. pallescens_ differs from _C. r. intermedius_ only in being slightly
paler. Our specimens from Goldhill and South Fork of the Ogden River
are not beyond the range of color of specimens from elsewhere in the
state that are referable to _C. r. pallescens_. Inasmuch as specimens
are not available from Logan Canyon, we deem it best pending the
acquisition of specimens from that locality to refer all members of
this species from Utah to the subspecies _C. r. pallescens_.
_=Marmota flaviventer nosophora=_ Howell. Yellow-bellied
Marmot.--Durrant (1952:101) did not indicate that any species of the
genus _Marmota_ occurred on the mountains within the basin of
Pleistocene Lake Bonneville. Furthermore, he commented (_op. cit._:502)
upon the dearth of sciurids within this basin. One specimen, No.
10,905, of the subspecies _M. f. nosophora_ has been taken from South
