[MCZ Mamm 58500] Nyctiellus lepidus - Incorrect Locality Description #26

Closed kspeeriful closed 9 years ago

kspeeriful commented 9 years ago

MCZ Mamm 58500 has the locality "Cat Cays Sheeps Hill Cave." This locality description is incorrect and should only say Long Island as indicated by the image of the MCZ accession book that accompanies this record. There are a few additional records with the same locality and they are also incorrect.
