Myotis yumanensis (H. [Allen])
Yuma myotis
Description.—The present species closely resembles Myotis lucifugus and specimens in worn pelage can not be distinguished from that species unless the cleaned skulls are examined. In fresh pelage, yumanensis is duller than lucifugus.
Myotis yumanensis ranges from southern British Columbia to central Mexico west of the Mississippi River. Four races are recognized by [Miller] and [Allen] (1928: 62).
