Comment:
Comments: Subgenus Typomys. Part of the murine fauna endemic to West Africa (see account of Grammomys buntingi). Taxonomic status, phylogenetic relationship, and significance of distribution in Liberian forest refuge reviewed by Carleton and Robbins (1985). Additional data reported by Gautun et al. (1986). Grubb et al. (1998) reviewed Sierra Leone populations, and Barnett et al. (1996) extended its range in Guinea to the Kounounkan Massif
