Comment:
Status: IUCN - Data Deficient
Comment:
Comments: More generalized terrestrial form and habits have suggested a closer relationship to Phenacomys intermedius (e.g., Hall, 1981, placed albipes and intermedius together in subgenus Phenacomys). Johnson and Maser (1982) enumerated character states that instead support closer congruence of albipes with species of Arborimus.
