Treatment

Hapalomys longicaudatus Blyth, 1859 View in CoL . J. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, 28:296.

TYPE LOCALITY: Burma, Tenasserim, Sitang River Valley .

DISTRIBUTION: SE Burma, SW and peninsular Thailand, and Malaya Peninsula; limits unknown.

COMMENTS: Karyotype uninformative about phylogenetic relationships (Yong, et al., 1982). Spermatozoal morphology similar to that of Chiropodomys and Maxomys , which also resembled the basic structure found in species of Mus and Apodemus ( Breed and Yong (1986). Among Sundaic genera, H. longicaudatus may be most closely related to Chiropodomys , based on external and cranial traits ( Musser and Newcomb, 1983).
