Oryzomys meridensis Thomas 1894 View in CoL , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 6, 14: 351.

Type Locality: Venezuela, Mérida State, Mérida.

Vernacular Names: Merida Oryzomys.

Distribution: Sierra de Mérida, W Venezuela.

Discussion: Reallocated as a subspecies of O. albigularis by Cabrera (1961), but extensive chromosomal rearrangements suggest specific status ( Aguilera et al., 1995). Karyotypic and morphometric differentiation from Venzuelan populations identified as O. caracolus assessed by Aguilera et al. (1995) and Márquez et al. (2000); also see remarks under the latter. Nongeographic variation in crania and dentitions evaluated (as O. albigularis ) by Rivas and Pefaur (1999 b).
