Comment:
Comments: Oryzomyini. Associated with phyllotines by Hershkovitz (1962) and viewed as the tribe's most ancient clade by Braun (1993). However, excluded from Phyllotini by Olds and Anderson (1989), and oryzomyine characteristics illuminated by Voss and Myers (1991). Formally allocated to Oryzomyini as the tribal diagnosis was phylogenetically recast by Voss and Carleton (1993); the morphology of the glans penis also supports this tribal assignment (Langguth and Silva Neto, 1993) as do other morphologi...
