Oligoryzomys destructor: Comments
Comment:
Status: IUCN - Data Deficient
Comment:
Comments: Considered a subspecies of O. longicaudatus by Gyldenstolpe (1932) and Cabrera (1961); provisionally resurrected as species by Carleton and Musser (1989). Karyotype reported by Gardner and Patton (1976) as Oryzomys longicaudatus variant (4). Distributional limits, validity of included synonyms, and relationships to other Andean species all require detailed investigation
