Comments: Considered conspecific with pardina-maculata by Schlawe (1981), Wozencraft (1993) and Grubb et al. (1998). Rosevear (1974) and Crawford-Cabral (1981a) discussed its taxonomic status. Erroneously used for designating cristata by Jeannin (1936) and Happold (1987). Gaubert et al. (2003a) proposed specific status on the basis of coat pattern and hair ultrastructure, together with sympatric distribution with pardina and maculata
