Status: IUCN - Lower Risk (lc)
Comment:
Comments: Reviewed by Langguth and Abella (1970). Six subspecies were recognized by Contreras and Contreras (1984), however, no justification was given for the four new subspecies named in that paper. Altuna and Lessa (1985) and Altuna et al. (1985) regarded C. m. rionegrensis as a full species (see comments under rionegrensis). Karyotype has 2n=42, 45-50 and FN=76 (Freitas, 1997)
