TYPE LOCALITY: "Liberty Hill, Conn." [New London Co., Connecticut, USA] .

DISTRIBUTION: S Maine to N Alabama discontinuously along the Appalachian Mtns ( USA).

STATUS: Range, especially in north, has been much reduced, probably by habitat alteration and subsequent displacement by S. floridanus ( Chapman and Ceballos, 1990) .

SYNONYMS: Monotypic.

COMMENTS: Subgenus Sylvilagus ( Gureev, 1964:166) . Two cytotypes are known; northern (2n=52) and southern (2n=46)( Holden and Eabry, 1970; Robinson et al., 1983); and may require recognition of a new species ( Ruedas, 1986). Reviewed by Chapman (1975b, Mammalian Species, 55).
