Isolobodon montanus Miller 1922, Smithson. Misc. Coll., 74: 3.

Type Locality: Haiti, Dept. de l’Artibonite, Cave northeast of Saint Michael de l’Atalye.

Vernacular Names: Montane Hutia.

Distribution: Hispaniola and La Gonave Isl.

Discussion: Originally described in a separate genus from I. portoricensis because the enamel folds of the cheekteeth connect to form separate laminar plates, but a large series of each species indicates that this character is clinal, and the two forms are very closely related.
