GENUS Hemibelideus
Author: | Collett, 1884. | Citation: | Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1884: 385. | Type Species: | Phalangista (Hemibelideus) lemuroides Collett, 1884. | Comments: | Formerly included in Pseudocheirus, and retained in that genus by McKenna and Bell (1997), but it was shown by Kirsch et al. (1997) that the two are very distinct, and Hemibelideus is sister-group to Petauroides. |
