Abstract
There are two species of moles in Illinois: one, the starnose mole, Condylura cristata (Linnaeus), is found sparingly in the northern part of the state; the other, known as the common or shrew-mole, Scalopus aquaticus (Limnaeus), is the one with which this paper deals. It is distributed throughout most of the state, and apparently all our specimens may be referred to the western subspecies machrinus (Rafinesque).
