| Summary | "Two New Moles (Genus Scalopus) from Mexico and Texas" by Rollin H. Baker is a scientific publication written in the early 21st century, specifically in the early 1950s. This work is part of the University of Kansas Publications, Museum of Natural History series and focuses on the discovery and description of two new species of moles within the Scalopus genus found in Mexico and Texas. In this publication, Baker details the identification of two specific moles: the new species "Scalopus montanus", found in Coahuila, Mexico, and the subspecies "Scalopus aquaticus alleni", designated from Aransas County, Texas. The text provides thorough measurements, illustrations, and comparative analysis against existing species to highlight their unique characteristics. Baker emphasizes the geographical isolation of "S. montanus" and discusses the implications for the understanding of mole biodiversity in the region. The findings underscore the rich yet underexplored mammalian fauna of the Sierra del Carmen, suggesting that further research may reveal additional species yet to be discovered.
