(1965: 184), but see Hall (1981:381) who included Urocitellus in subgenus Spermophilus. Regarded by Ellerman and Morrison-Scott (1951:511) and Hall and Kelson (1959:343) as a synonym of undulatus. Gromov et al. (1965: 184) and Nadler et al. (1974) provided evidence of specific distinctness. Reviewed by Chernyavskii (1972), Nadler and Hoffmann (1977), Serdyuk (1979) (Palearctic), and Pearson (1981) (Nearctic). Nikol'skii and Wallschläger (1982) noted differences in alarm calls between Siberian and Alaskan populations. Published as part of Robert S. Hoffmann & Charles G.
