| Author: | Osgood, 1943. | | Citation: | J. Mammal., 24: 369. | | Type Species: | Punomys lemminus Osgood, 1943. | | Comments: | Generic-level affinities uncertain (Osgood, 1943): left as Sigmodontinae incertae sedis by some (Hershkovitz, 1962; Reig, 1980, 1981, 1984; Smith and Patton, 1999; Steppan, 1995) or formally assigned to Tribe Phyllotini by others (Braun, 1993; McKenna and Bell, 1997; Olds and Anderson, 1989; Vorontsov, 1959). Pacheco and Patton (1995) provided a synopsis of distributional records, specific discrimination, and natural history. |
