Lenoxus Thomas 1909 View in CoL , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 8, 4: 236.

Type Species: Oxymycterus apicalis J. A. Allen 1900

Species and subspecies: 1 species:

Species Lenoxus apicalis (J. A. Allen 1900)

Discussion: Akodontini. Viewed as closely related to Oxymycterus by Reig (1987), but electrophoretic data reveal Lenoxus as cladistically removed from Oxymycterus proper (Patton et al., 1989) and gene sequences indicate closer relationship to a clade including Blarinomys , Brucepattersonius , Kunsia , and Scapteromys (D’Elía, 2003; D’Elía et al., 2003; Smith and Patton, 1999).
