Gerbillus watersi De Winton 1901

Description

Gerbillus watersi De Winton, 1901. Novit. Zool., 8:399.

TYPE LOCALITY: Sudan, Upper Nile, Shendi.

DISTRIBUTION: Somalia; Djibouti; Sudan.

COMMENT: Petter, 1975, Part 6.3:11, listed watersi both as a distinct species and as a subspecies of nanus; includes Monodia juliani; see Roche, 1975, Monitore Zool. ItaL, suppl. 6(13):263-268. Kock, 1978, Bull. Carnegie Mus. Nat. Hist., 6:31-37, and Corbet and Hill, 1980:164, considered watersi a distinct species. DML considers juliani distinct from watersi pending revision; he places both forms in genus Dipodillus; but see comment under Gerbillus.

ISIS NUMBER: 5301410008091038001.
