Description
Hoplomys J. A. Allen 1908
Hoplomys J. A. Allen 1908, Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 24: 649.
Type Species: Hoplomys truei J. A. Allen 1908
Species and subspecies: 1 species:
Species Hoplomys gymnurus (Thomas 1897)
Discussion: Revised by Handley (1959 a). Patton and Reig (1989:90) demonstrated that this genus is very close to Proechimys, and may be congeneric, a view supported by DNA sequence analyses (Lara et al., 1996).
