There is no concrete evidence to indicate that the mountain goat has oc- curred in Colorado in Recent times prior to its introduction by man. Perhaps early re- ports represent sightings of bighorn ewes. TYPE LOCALITIES OF MAMMALS IN COLORADO Sixty-six nominal mammalian taxa have been described with type localities in Colo- rado. An outline resume of these names fol- lows, arranged by county where possible. En- tries consist of the type locality, as currently understood, the original name of the taxon with author and date, and the name under which a given nominal taxon is treated in the present checklist. Numbers identify localities as plotted in Fig. 117. MOFFAT COUNTY. 1. Little Snake River, S of Sunny Peak.— Myotis lucifugus phasma Miller and Allen, 1928 [Myotis yumanensis yu- manensis].
