TYPE SPECIES: Didelphis elegans Waterhouse, 1839 , by monotypy.

SYNONYMS: None.

REMARKS: Generic monophyly has been consistently and strongly supported by phylogenetic analyses of multilocus sequence datasets (e.g., Díaz-Nieto et al., 2016a; Amador and Giannini, 2016). See Voss and Jansa (2009) for an emended generic description. Two subgenera are currently recognized ( Giarla et al., 2010).
