Description
Rhipidomys macconnelli De Winton 1900
Rhipidomys macconnelli De Winton 1900, Trans. Linn. Soc. Lond., 8: 52.
Type Locality: Venezuela, Bolívar State, Mt Roraima, 8700 ft (2652 m).
Vernacular Names: Tepui Rhipidomys.
Synonyms: Rhipidomys subnubis Tate 1939.
Distribution: Highlands of S Venezuela (Bolívar and Amazonas) and neighboring parts of N Brazil and W Guyana.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: R. macconnelli section sensu Tribe (1996). Sometimes misallocated as a species of Thomasomys (e.g., Gyldenstolpe, 1932) but see Hershkovitz (1959 b). Tribe (1996:194) viewed macconnelli "as a possible basal offshoot of the genus.".
