COMMENTS: Tribe Marmotini ( Moore, 1959) . Citellus Oken, 1816 has been widely used, but is invalid ( Corbet, 1978c:82; Hershkovitz, 1949b). Includes Callospermophilus , Ictidomys, Otospermophilus, Poliocitellus , Spermophilus, and Xerospermophilus as subgenera ( Hall, 1981:382); Gromov et al. (1965) gave the first three taxa generic rank. North American species revised by Howell (1938). Eurasian species revised by Gromov et al. (1965) who also recognized Colobotis and Urocitellus as subgenera; but see Hall (1981:382), who included them in subgenus Spermophilus. Holarctic species reviewed by Nadler et al. (1982, 1984). A key to the genus was given by Rickart and Yensen (1991).
