NATIONAL MUSEUM Vol. 84 Washington: 1937 No. 3022 ANNOTATED LIST OF WEST VIRGINIA MAMMALS By Remington Kellogg Assistant Curator, Division of Mammals, United States National Museum In the spring of 1936 the Smithsonian Institution completed ar-rangements for a party from the United States National Museum to make a collection of birds and mammals in West Virginia. In ac-cordance with instructions I accompanied the party across the State to Cabell County, where a camp was established about 4 miles east of Huntington on April 19, 1936. After making a number of short trips along the stream valleys of adjoining counties to appraise col-lecting prospects, I returned to Washington, D. C, on April 25. Watson M. Perrygo and Carleton Lingebach continued with the work until July 9 and then returned to Washington. On September 16 they went again to W^est Virginia and remained there until November 7. Included in this report are all the West Virginia specimens in the National Museum and the Biological Survey collections. Seventy-three forms of Recent mammals are recorded as present either now or formerly within the boundaries of the State. Measurements herein are given in millimeters. The collectors of the specimens herein discussed are listed as follows chronologically according to the year in w^hich the material was obtained: 152554— 3T 1 443
