Marmota (Marmota) broweri Hall and Gilmore 1934 View in CoL , Canadian Field Nat., 48: 57.

Type Locality: USA, "Point Lay, Arctic Coast of Alaska " Restricted by Rausch (1953:117) to head of Kukpowruk River, Alaska.

Vernacular Names: Alaska Marmot.

Distribution: Brooks Range of N Alaska ( USA) from near coast of Chukchi Sea to Alaska-Yukon border; perhaps also N Yukon ( Canada).

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Subgenus Marmota ( Steppan et al., 1999) . Regarded as a synonym of caligata ( Hall, 1981) but Rausch and Rausch (1965, 1971) and Hoffmann et al. (1979) considered broweri a distinct species. Steppan et al. (1999) found that broweri is more closely related to the Old World caudata than to Nearctic marmots.
