Abstract

El roedor filotino Tapecomys ha sido mencionado con 2 especies en Argentina, la típica Tapecomys primus Anderson y Yates, 2000 y Tapecomys wolffsohni (Thomas, 1902); ambas han sido reportadas como simpátricas en 1 localidad de las Yungas de Jujuy. Una revisión de estos materiales indica que la referencia a T. wolffsohni es incorrecta. En este contexto, en la selva montana solo se registra T. primus con 4 localidades en Jujuy. Otro registro para T. wolffsohni en Argentina, correspondiente a una localidad de Salta, es discutido sobre la base de una nueva aproximación morfológica. En el estado de conocimiento actual no es posible afirmar que T. wolffsohni habite el país. The 2 known species of the phyllotine rodent Tapecomys , the typical, Tapecomys primus Anderson and Yates, 2000 and Tapecomys wolffsohni (Thomas, 1902), have been cited for Argentina, and reported to be sympatric in 1 locality in the Yungas of Jujuy. A review of these materials suggest that the reference for T. wolffsohni is incorrect. In this context, only 1 species— T. primus —is present in 4 localities in the montane forests of Jujuy. A record for T. wolffsohni from 1 locality in Salta, is discussed based on a critical assessment of the morphological variation of these species. Currently it is not possible to confirm that T. wolffsohni inhabits the country. Fil: Pardiñas, Ulises Francisco J.. Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas.

Abstract

The article describes the presence of a known specimen of the cricetid genus Punomys, a new rodent genus, for Bolivia based on an adult female caught in 1987. The specific affinities of the specimen are currently unidentified as it shares qualitative as well as quantitative characters with Punomys kofordi and P. lemminus but also differs significantly from both species. It suggests that the levels of intraspecific variation within the known species of Punomys need to be examined critically and the unique Bolivian specimen is damaged badly enough to prevent the comparison of many taxonomically significant characters.
