GENUS Thalpomys
| Author: | Thomas, 1916. | | Citation: | Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 8, 18: 339. | | Type Species: | Thalpomys lasiotis Thomas, 1916 (not Mus lasiotis of Lund, 1841). | | Comments: | Akodontini. Recognized as a genus, as initially diagnosed, by Gyldenstolpe (1932); reclassified as a subgenus of Akodon by Ellerman (1941) and so observed by Cabrera (1961), or considered a subjective synonym of Bolomys (Reig, 1987). See Hershkovitz (1990a) for availability of genus-group name, its differentiating characters from typical Akodon, and definition of included species. |
