Comment:
Status: IUCN - Lower Risk (lc)
Comment:
Comments: Karyotype (2n = 64) compared with other oryzomyines by Gardner and Patton (1976). Morphological, karyological, and molecular differentiation from N. minutus and N. musseri presented by Patton et al. (2000). Lawrence (1941) recognized the nominate form and carceleni as subspecies, a division supported by the limited samples genetically analyzed by Patton et al. (2000). Known sympatrically with N. minutus and N. musseri
