- Abstract
Type localities of small mammals in Patagonia: Hatcher's expedition to the Meseta del Lago Buenos Aires, Santa Cruz, Argentina. On the basis of a reconstruction of J. B. Hatcher y E. A. Colburn's 1898 expedition to Patagonia's Lake Buenos Aires region and intervening areas (Santa Cruz, Argentina), we discuss the geographic provenance of the holotypes of the rodents Eligmodontia morgani J. Allen, 1901 (Cricetidae) and Ctenomys colburni J. Allen, 1903 (Ctenomyidae). Type localities for both taxa have been the subject of debate, and new information allows us to restrict their location. Additionally, we provide geographic information about other mammals documented by them, most notably the Huemul (Hippocamelus bisulcus).
