Gerbillus hesperinus: Comments
Comment:
Status: IUCN - Lower Risk (lc)
Comment:
Comments: Subgenus Gerbillus. See the references cited by Lay (1983) for characters defining this distinctive Moroccan endemic. Lay (1975) also documented the striking morphological and chromosomal contrasts between G. hesperinus and Moroccan G. hoogstraali and G. occiduus. Also reviewed by Aulagnier and Thevenot (1986) and Pavlinov et al. (1990)
Comment:
Wilson and Reeder (2005) erroneously cite the publication date of Gerbillus hirtipes hesperinus Cabrera, 1906 as 1936 (see Ellerman 1966: 635)
