It does not appear to venture into woodlands or swamps, but seems to prefer dry, open situations such as the edges of fields and grassy pastures. Its general distribution is more northern than that of its near relative, P. Leucopus noveboracensis. It is very abundant in the sand dunes that border Lake Michigan. At Maxinkuckee it is probably not uncommon, though we have seen only 3 examples. One was found dead on the railroad track November 3, 1904. Another captured at the gravel pit October 29,... 1906, gave the following measurements: Length 118 mm. ; tail 48; hind foot 9; ear 10; girth 55. A third example was captured November 3, 1906, in a cornfield east of the lake. The young of this mouse differ from the adult in being drab in color instead of yellowish-brown. On one occasion when trapping these mice for specimens it was observed that they were quite seriously infested by fleas. The examples thus afflicted could usually be recognized at once by their having the hair gnawed or scratched out from about the root of the tail.
