Type Species:Ichthyomys trichotis Thomas, 1897.
Comments:Ichthyomyini. Described as a species of Ichthyomys, trichotis was thereafter associated first with Rheomys (Cabrera, 1961; Tate, 1932h) and then Anotomys (Handley, 1976). Generic distinctiveness and phylogenetic relationships substantiated by Voss (1988); also see Jenkins and Barnett (1997).
