_Specimens examined_, 3: nos. 120273-120275 (U. S. Nat. Mus.) from Zamora.

_Remarks._--As explained in detail by Hall and Villa (1948:254) these specimens from Zamora are intergrades between _L. i. jaliscensis_ and _L. i. acutus_ and with almost equal propriety could be referred to either subspecies.

_Specimens examined_, 5: nos. 50325-50329 (U. S. Nat. Mus.) from Querendaro.

_Remarks._--The specimens from Querendaro are not typical of the subspecies _L. i. alleni_ in that the shape of the interparietal bone and width of the basisphenoid bone are almost exactly intermediate between the conditions obtaining in typical _L. i. alleni_ and topotypes of _L. i. acutus_.
