18 Mech 8/
Chiricahua Mts a. T.
(Morse's Mill)
5752
65 Parns meridionalis? 5.2 X 8.5 8
Iris dark brown, Insects.
As near as I can make it out
this is P. muridalis but I
may be mistaken. I saw
another with it (probably a
female) but after shooting
this I did not see the
other again, and supposing
this to be septentrionalis I
did not look for the other
as I cared for only a single
specimen of common species.
This was up a canon about
half way to the summit
from the mill. My attention
was attracted by its note which
was like that of septentrionalis
It was in an Oak when first
seen but flew into a Spruce.
The only Parns I saw in N.M. were
a very few P. montanus
