GENUS Ozotoceros
| Author: | Ameghino, 1891. | | Citation: | Rev. Argent. Hist. Nat., 1: 243. | | Type Species: | Cervus bezoarticus Linnaeus, 1758 misidentified as Cervus campestris F. Cuvier, 1817. | | Comments: | Ozotoceros is the name to be used for Blastoceros Fitzinger, 1860, if Blastoceros is regarded as an invalid emendation of Blastocerus; see Hershkovitz (1958) and Grubb (2000). Included in Odocoileus by Haltenorth (1963:46), Bianchini and Delupi (1979), and Ximenez et al. (1972), but a distinct genus (Groves and Grubb, 1987). |
