Taeromys arcuatus: Comments
Comment:
Status: IUCN - Vulnerable
Comment:
Comments: Closest relative is an undescribed species in mountains of C Sulawesi (Musser and Holden, 1991; Musser, ms). This geographic pattern, in which a species in the central part of the island has a close ally on the SE Peninsula, is repeated by Taeromys callitrichus (central) and T. microbullatus (southeast), an undescribed species of Maxomys (central) and M. dollmani (southeast), and Rattus marmosurus (central) and R. salocco (southeast). Sody (1941) proposed Arcuomys for arcuatus
