Description
Solenodon cubanus Peters 1861
Solenodon cubanus Peters 1861, Monatsb. K. Preuss. Akad. Wiss. Berlin, 1861: 169.
Type Locality: Cuba, Oriente Prov., Bayamo.
Vernacular Names: Cuban Solenodon.
Synonyms: Solenodon poeyanus Barbour 1944.
Distribution: Extant only in SE Cuba; Late Quaternary and Amerindian sites all over the island (Ottenwalder, 2001:317).
Conservation: U.S. ESA – Endangered; IUCN – Endangered.
Discussion: Sometimes placed in a distinct genus or subgenus, Atopogale, see Hall and Kelson (1959:22) and Hall (1981:22), but see Poduschka and Poduschka (1983:225-238) who regarded Atopogale as a synonym of Solenodon. For biological information see Varona (1983 b) and Ottenwalder (2001).
