Synonyms

The Texas black-tailed jackrabbit has one accepted synonym; being Lepus texianus by John James Audubon and John Bachman in the Viviparous Quadrupeds of North America. The species taxonomic rank was then lowered to a subspecies rank, for the Texas black-tailed jackrabbit looked almost exactly the same as the common black-tailed jackrabbit.
