This is a scientific publication of his study of Nebraskan mammals by Dr. J. Knox Jones Jr. a prolific mammalogist. He aims at, "placing on record certain information on the geographic distribution of several species—information that is thought pertinent to current studies of some of my associates." Most of this information is provided by specimens collected by him and other representatives of the University Of Kansas Museum Of Natural History, although specimens from other collections provide some of the records therein reported. The Knox Jones gopher found in parts of Texas and New Mexico is named after him.

Noteworthy distributional and natural history notes are reported for mammals from Nebraska and South Dakota. Such observations are important in understanding distributions of mammals, some of which currently are shifting, as well as understanding their behaviors and ecological relationships between species. Herein, observations are reported for 15 species from two orders of mammals, Chiroptera and Rodentia, including 16 county records and a number of natural history notes. Natural history notes, in part, include a Silver-haired bat (Lasionycteris noctiivagans) predated by a Northern Saw-whet Owl (Aegolius acadicus), semi-aquatic Common Muskrats (Ondatra zibethicus) climbing trees, diurnal observations of Plains Harvest Mice (Reithrodontomys montanus), and a Meadow Jumping Mouse (Zapus hudsonius) climbing tall grasses to reach seed heads. Distributional records fill in gaps in occurrences of species across two states, whereas natural history observations continue to demonstrate how diverse interactions and behaviors are for mammals in the Great Plains
