a. intermedius_,
geographically adjacent to the north, _S. a. alleni_ differs
in: Size smaller; skull smaller and flatter with shorter
tooth-row (see Davis, _op cit._:384, 385). For comparison
with _S. a. texanus_, see account of that subspecies.
_Remarks._--This mole is named in honor of Dr. J. A. Allen in
recognition for his work on Texas mammals. Grateful acknowledgment is
made to those in charge of the collection of Recent mammals in the
American Museum of Natural History for permitting me to examine the
moles from Aransas County and the type specimen of _Scalops argentatus
texanus_ Allen.
