Cerradomys Weksler, Percequillo & Voss 2006

The genus Cerradomys comprises eight species, namely: C. akroai (Bonvicino, Casado & Weksler 2014) , C. goytaca ( Tavares, Pêssoa & Gonçalves 2011) , C. langguthi (Percequillo, Hingst-Zaher & Bonvincino 2008) , C. maracajuensis (Langguth & Bonvincino 2002) , C. marinhus (Bonvincino 2003) , C. scotti (Langguth & Bonvincino 2002) , C. subflavus (Wagner 1842) , and C. vivoi (Percequillo, Hingst-Zaher & Bonvincino 2008) . These species occur in the open vegetation belt that crosses South America from north-eastern Brazil to south-eastern Bolivia and north-western Paraguay ( Weksler et al. 2006; Percequillo et al. 2008; Prado & Percequillo 2013; Percequillo 2015b). All cytogenetic data available for the genus was presented on Table 2, and the distribution of diploid and fundamental number of karyotyped specimens were presented on Fig. 2 .
