Notes
Park Species Detail: Nomenclature change from Eutamias/Tamias rufus. Eutamias quadrivittatus, an old name, is listed on Schelz’s mammal list as the Colorado chipmunk. According to Bogan, there are *no* Colorado chipmunks (Neotamias quadrivittatus) in any Utah national park - this is a high elevation species, and not found in Utah parks. Whenever a species listed as quadrivittatus is listed in NCPN parks, it is either Neotamias rufus, or Neotamias umbrinus, but mostly widely, N. rufus. Regarding Armstrong’s papers where he lists Eutamias quadrivittatus as the Colorado Chipmunk: this was what Neotamias rufus was called then, the common name is not Colorado Chipmunk, but the Hopi Chipmunk., Park Species Data Source: Revised Checklist of North American Mammals North of Mexico, 2003, Bibkey #585206
