Paramys sp. , cf. P. delicatior Leidy, 1871

Remarks. West and Hutchinson (1981) described Paramys sp. , cf. P. delicatior based on eight isolated teeth (MPM 5882-5887, 5892, 5893) recovered from MPM Locality 2970 in the TBM exposed on the southwest flank of Sage Creek Mountain. These teeth differ from those of P. delicatior by being slightly smaller and by having their enamel surfaces slightly less crenulated ( West and Hutchison, 1981). No additional teeth of this taxon were recovered during this study.
