Treatment

Chiropodomys pusillus Thomas, 1893 View in CoL . Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 6, 11:345.

TYPE LOCALITY: Malaysia (Borneo), Sabah, Gunung Kinabalu, 1000 ft .

DISTRIBUTION: Recorded only from Sabah, Sarawak, and S Kalimantan (Musser, 1979), but probably occurs throughout Borneo.

COMMENTS: Thomas described pusillus as a species, but Musser (1979) treated it as a distinctive subspecies of C. gliroides . However, the few known specimens of pusillus represent a population of small-bodied mice in which the range of variation of most dimensions are outside of range recorded for all other samples of C. gliroides .
