1 THE NUMBER 87 7 OCTOBER 1983 TYPE SPECIMENS OF MAMMALS IN THE COLLECTION OF THE INSTITUTE OF BIOLOGY, NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF MEXICO GUILLERMINA URBANO VIDALES AND OSCAR SANCHEZ-HERRERA The mammal collection of the Institute of Biology was founded in 1945 by Dr. Bernardo Villa-Ramírez and has been growing steadily since that time, especially through the cooperation of a number of staff scientists. As of October 1982, the collection contained 19,939 specimens-17,394 skins accompanied by skulls, 2247 individuals in alcohol, and 298 complete skeletons. These specimens represent 356 of the mammalian species occurring in México, based on published checklists such as those of Jones et al. (1977) and Hall (1981). All mammalian orders known to occur in México are present in the collection; Rodentia and Chiroptera are the orders best represented, which is not surprising, for rodents and bats together account for almost 75 per cent of the terrestrial species of mammals known from the country. The collection also houses several type specimens, some of which (the bats) were reported on previously by Alvarez (1966). The present paper is intended to provide a complete and updated list of type materials in the Institute of Biology. Twenty-six type specimens exist, which relate to 15 taxa, as described below. II 1 INSECfIVORA Notiosorex (Xenosorex) phillipsii Schaldach Siiugertierkund. Mitteil.. 14:289. October.
2 OCCASIONAL PAPERS MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY Holotype.-Adult female, skin and skull, IBUNAM 8445, from Río Molino, 3 km SW San Miguel Suchixtepec, 2250 m, Oaxaca; obtained on 18 December 1964 by W. J. Schaldach, original number Remarks.-Skin of right hind foot slightly damaged. A synonym of Cryptotis mexicana peregrina (Merriam, 1895) according to Choate ( 1970), even though the upper toothrow of the holotype (with three unicuspid teeth) does not seem to have any space corresponding to the supposedly missing fourth tooth. t Balantiopteryx CHIROPTERA ochoterenai Martínez and Villa-R An. Inst. Biol., Univ. Nac. Autón. México, 9:339, 14 November. Lectotype. -Young adult male, specimen in alcohol with skull removed and tied to hind foot, IBUNAM 9180, from Cuautla, Morelos; obtained on 8 July 1938 by M. del Toro and Lic. Moreno, original number 30. Remarks.-Skulllacking right zygomatic arch as well as part of the occiput; left wing membrane partly broken. This name is a synonym of Balantiopteryx Plicata plicata Peters, 1867, as noted by Alvarez (1966), who designated no.9180 as the lectotype. Paralectotypes.-Adult female, IBUNAM 9179, original number 29; young female, IBUNAM 9181, original number 31; young female, IBUNAM 9182, original number 32; young female, IBUNAM 9183, original number 33; young female, IBUNAM 9184, original number 34. AII paralectotypes are stored in alcohol and are from Cuautla, Morelos; obtained on 8 July 1938 by M. del Toro and Lic. Moreno. Glossophaga motenoi Martínez and Villa-R An. Inst. Biol.. Univ. Nac. Autón. México, 9:347, 14 November. "Neotype."-Adult female, skin and skull, IBUNAM 7383, from Cueva del Idolo, 1 km S Tequesquitengo, 950 m, Morelos; obtained on 24 April 1963 by M. Villa C. (W. A. Wimsatt), original number 37. Remarks.-Right auditory bulla missing, left wing membranes perforated. Webster and Jones (1980) have placed this name as a synonym of Glossophaga leachii, an action with which we agree. In that context, we do not give nomenclatorial validity to this "neotype," because its dental features (such as procumbent upper incisors, evenly spaced lower incisors, depressed presphenoid
3 URBANO VIDALES AND SANCHEZ-HERRERA- TYPE SPECIMENS 3 ridge, and reduced pterygoid "wings..) place it in G. sorzcma. Furthermore, the designation of neotype does not conform to the requirements of the Il:ltemational Code of Zoological Nomenclature, Article 75 (sections a and c). In any event, the specimen will be kept labeled as "neotype.' for ease of reference. Leptonycteris nivalis yerbabuenae Martínez and Villa-R An. Inst. Biol.. Univ. Nac. Autón. México, 11:313. August. Paratypes.-Adult male, IBUNAM 9214, original number 269; adult female, IBUNAM 9215, original number 288; adult female, IBUNAM 9216, original number 294; from Cueva de la Laguna Honda, Yerbabuena, 1800 m, Guerrero; obtained on 15 September 1938 by L. Martínez; original numbers, if any, unknown. AII specimens, from which the skulls have been removed, are stored in alcohol. Remarks.-Hall (1981) gave fu11 recognition to L. yerbabuenae as a va1id species and provided a discussion on its nomenclatoria1 status (but see Watkins et al., 1972). The three paratypes in our collection represent a species distinct from L. nivalis according to the systematic characters outlined by Hoffmeister (1957) and Hall (1981). Ramírez and Alvarez (1972) designated no.9216 as a "Iectotype.' and the other two specimens as "paralectotypes..' However, as pointed out by Watkins et al. (1972), Article 72a of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature indicates that a lectotype can be designated only from a syntypic series. Vesperugo veraecrucis Ward Amer. Nat.. 25:745. August. Holotype.-Adult male, specimen in alcohol, IBUNAM 9243, from Las Vigas, Canton of Jalapa, Veracruz; obtained by H. L. Ward and C. M. Teran; date not recorded on the new label, which furthermore reads "cerca de Jalapa"; original number 527, recorded on a small rigid (probably wooden) label tied to the right foot. Remarks.- The type has a hole (4 mm in diameter) in the abdominal region. This taxon currently is regarded as valid under the name Pipistrellus subflavus veraecrucis. Paratypes.-Adult female, IBUNAM 9244, original number 528, and adult male, IBUNAM 9245, original number 531; both in alcohol; from the type locality; dates not recorded on labels, obtained by H. L. Ward.
4 OCCASIONAL PAPERS MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY Rhogeessa mira La Val Occas. Papers Mus. Nat.Hist., Univ. Kansas, 19:26.9 November. Holotype.-Adult male, skin and skull, IBUNAM 8594, from 20 km N El Infiernillo, Michoacán; obtained on 29 November 1964 by Ticul Alvarez, original number Remarks.- The holotype has the right half of uropatagium perforated. R. mira is a valid and monotypic species (Jones et al., 1977; Hall, 1981). Nyctinomus depressus Ward Amer. Nat., 25:747, August. Holotype.-Adult male, specimen in alcohol with skull removed, IBUNAM 9246, from Tacubaya, Distrito Federal; date not recorded on label; presumably obtained by H. L. Ward, original number 516. Remarks.-Skull lacking the right occipital condyle. Now a synonym of Tadarida macrotis (Gray, l839)-see Hall (1981). Cynomops malagai Villa-R Acta. Zool. Mexicana, I (4):2, 15 September. Holotype.-Adult female, skin and skull, IBUNAM 1738, from Tuxpan de Rodríguez Cano, 4 m, Veracruz; obtained on 2 August 1955 by B. Villa-R., original number Remarks.-Actually a synonym of Molossus ater nigricans Miller, 1902-see Hall (1981). Citellus adocetus arceliae Villa-R. RODENTIA An. Inst. Biol., Univ. Nac. Autón. México. 13:357. October. Paratype.-Adult male, skin and skull, IBUNAM 4436, from Rancho El Limón, 4 km S Arcelia, Guerrero; obtained on II December 1941 by B. Villa-R., original number 141. Remarks.-Skin bald in several areas excepting the dorsal region and head. Now regarded as a synonym of SPermophilus adocetus adocetus Merriam, 1903-see Hall (1981). Orthogeomys grandis alvarezi Schaldact Siiugertierkund. Mitteil., 14:292, October. ~
5 URBANO VIDALES AND SANCHEZ-HERRERA- TYPE SPECIMENS 5 Holotype.-Adult female, skin and skull, IBUNAM 8496, from 40 km N San Gabriel Mixtepec, Oaxaca; obtained on 13 December 1964 by W. J. Schaldach, original number Remarks.-A valid subspecies following Hall (1981). Orthogeomys grandis huixtlae Villa-R An. Inst. Biol., Univ. Nac. Autón. México, 15:319. Holotype.-Adult male, skin and skull, IBUNAM 221, from Finca Lubeca, 12 km N Huixtla, 850 m, Chiapas; obtained on 4 January 1944 by B. Vil1a-R., original number 362. Remarks.-A valid taxon according to Hall (1981). Tylomis gymnurus Villa-R An. Inst. Biol.. Univ. Nac. Autón. México, 12:763, 18 November. Holotype.-Adult female, skin and skull, IBUNAM 101, from Presidio, Veracruz; obtained on 26 August 1940 by Abraham Ramírez, original number 2/161 (skin label). Remarks.-Sp~cimen in good condition except for slight damage to ears. The name Tylomis is a lapsus calami for Tylomys. Paratype.-Adult male, skin and skull, IBUNAM 100, from Presidio, Veracruz; obtained on 26 August 1940 by Abraham Ramírez, original number 1/160 (skin label). Remarks.-Skull has a broken interparietal, right parietal, and left supraoccipital. Villa-R. designated specimen 1/160, female, as the holotype; however, the original label of the male reads 1/160 and it is attached to the paratype. In addition, the date listed by Villa-R. in his work is 27 August 1940, and not the original date. This would suggest a mistaken sex-number correspondence in the original description. This is a valid subspecies, Tylomys nudicaudus gymnurus, according to Hall (1981). Tylomys nudicaudus villai Schaldach Siiugertierkund. Mitteil., 14:294, October Holotype.-Adult female, skin and skull, IBUNAM 8516, from Km 183 (=36.5 km N by road) San Gabriel Mixtepec, 1600 m, Oaxaca; obtained on 13 December 1964 by Juan Nava Solorio, original number (W. J. Schaldach) 13276~ Remarks.-Hall (1981) regarded T. n. villai as a valid taxon.
