COMMENTS: Phyllotine. Full generic revisions by Pearson (1958) and Hershkovitz (1962). Pearson (1958) utilized Auliscomys , Graomys , and Loxodontomys as subgenera, whereas Hershkovitz (1962) placed all three, plus Paralomys , in complete synonymy—see accounts of Auliscomys and Graomys for their reinstatement as genera. New karyotypic and distributional data bearing on species status and relationships provided by Pearson (1972), Spotorno (1976), and Pearson and Patton (1976).
