BULLETIN OF THE TEXAS MEMORIAL MUSEUM NUMBER 3 MARCH, 1962 A BIBLIOGRAPHY of theRecentMammalsofTexas GERALD G. RAUN TEXAS MEMORIAL MUSEUM THE MUSEUM OF THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS 24TH & TRINITY : AUSTIN 5, TEXAS Foreword One of the major problems facing a research worker in any field of science is the acquisition of knowledge of the literature pertaining to his interest. This problem is particularly acute to graduate students undertaking their first research and to those workers who move into a new region or a new phase of research with which they are not inti­mately familiar. Bibliographic research is, to many people, an onerous and thankless task. Much of the time invested leads only to dead ends and discouragement. Nonetheless, it is a necessary evil without which one could not progress. While it is recognized that any bibliography is out of date before it is published, it is hoped that this attempt at a compilation of the litera­ture pertaining to mammals in Texas will, in a small way, help to expedite the vast amount of work that remains to be done. The area covered is a complex and important geographic region, and while the volume of the literature might lead one to think otherwise, our under­standing of the mammals of Texas is hardly more than embryonic. For the most part, the work on mammals in Texas has been done by “tour­ists.” Only in the past quarter of this century have there been workers, based in the state, with the necessary personal interest and institutional encouragement to carry on intensive research. They are still too few and theboundariesofourknowledge advanceslowly. I have included in this bibliography every reference to a Recent mammal in Texas (with the exception of hunting stories) that I have been able to cite completely. Most of these I have personally read; some have been taken from the citations of other authors and included even though I was unable to obtain the original paper. In the course of compilation it was noted that authors all too frequently neglect to check the accuracy of their bibliography. On several occasions cita­tions were found which bore little resemblance to the original paperwhen it was finally located. Bibliographic sections are error-prone and should be checked and rechecked carefully. Without doubt, I shall be found guilty of the same sin of which I complain. A complete recheck of all of the included references was not possible and typographical errors are bound to creep in. The responsibility for errors of commission and omission is mine alone. I do not claim that this work is complete. The references are too numerous and too scattered for one person to find them all. Importantreferences have, no doubt, been missed. This is particularly true of the works published prior to 1900 and of the section dealing with parasitesand diseases which is probably the least adequate portion of this bibli­ography. Foreign publications are not included. As it is my desire to con­tinue this project, I welcome any criticism, comment, and notification of excluded references which would make a future revision more useful and complete. Papers which include references to more than five genera have been included only once in section I-VII to avoid unnecessary duplication.Those papers which deal with five or fewer genera are listed under each of the generic headings. In order to locate references to the genusBlaririafor example, one should consult section IX, Blarina and sec­tions I,, 11, and IV. It is hoped that this system of arrangement will facilitate use of this bibliography and reduce to a minimum the amount ofindex-consulting and page-turning.' It would have been more useful to have indexed down to species.However, this compilation was originally intended to be only for the author's personal use. By the time the decision was made to publish, it was beyond the author's limited time and facilities to recheck all the accumulated references. This work was made possible by the financial assistance of the Rob and BessieWelderWildlifeFoundation,Sinton,Texas.Iwishtoexpress my gratitude to Dr. Clarence Cottam, Director, and to the Board of Trustees, Messrs. John J. Welder, Patrick H. Welder, and M. HarveyWeil. Many people have materially assisted in this project. To attempt a comprehensive list would invariably lead to slighting a few. In partic­ular, I would like to express my gratitude to the following people for the use of personal and institutional library facilities and other courte­sies: Dr. Richard B. Manville, Fish and Wildlife Service, United States National Museum; Dr. W. Frank Blair, the University of Texas; Dr. W. B. Davis and Mr. James R. Dixon, Texas A and M College; Mr. L. C. Moloney, Texas A & I College; and Dr. Richard B. Eads, Texas State Health Department. I am indebted to my wife, Elizabeth, for many tedious hours spent in checking reference cards, manuscript, and proof. List of Abbreviations A. A. A. S.
