GENUS Palawanomys

Author:Musser and Newcomb, 1983.
Citation:Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 174: 335.
Type Species:Palawanomys furvus Musser and Newcomb, 1983.
Comments:RattusDivision. Phylogenetic affinities unclear, but among murines native to the Sunda Shelf, Palawanomys appears morphologically most closely allied to the cluster of genera that includes Rattus; broader regional comparisons required before more precise affinities can be determined (Musser and Newcomb, 1983).
