Excerpt from The Kansas University Science Bulletin, 1935, Vol. 23: Devoted to the Publication of the Results of Research by Members of the University of Kansas The summer Of 1933 was spent in Eastern museums, examining and reexamining specimens. In 1934 I journeyed in western Mexico in the states Of Sonora, Sinaloa and Nayarit. Here I met with most disheartening results as regards Eumeces. In the two months collecting (although more than specimens were collected) only a single specimen Of Eumeces was taken. Hobart Smith, in 1934, accompanied by David Dunkle, made a journey into northwestern Mexico in the states Of Chihuahua, Durango, Zacatecas and Nuevo Leon, and while gener ally successful, likewise Obtained only a single specimen of Eumeces. Aside from the material segregated at Kansas University, I have been fortunate in having been permitted to examine preserved speci mens belonging to all the larger American Museums and many of the smaller ones.
