Ellobius Fischer 1814

Description

Ellobius Fischer, 1814. Zoognosia, 3:72.

COMMENT: Placed with Prometheomys in subfamily Prometheomyinae by CAR. Gromov, 1972, Sbor. Tr. Zool. Mus. M.G.U., 13:8 -32, excluded Ellobius from Arvicolidae as a microtodontine cricetid. OLR follows Corbet, 1978:117, in recognizing only two species fuscocapillus and talpinus; but see Lyapunova and Vorontsov, 1978, Genetika, 14: 2012-2024, and Gromov and Baranova, 1981:151. See comment under Reithrodon physodes (Cricetidae), for discussion of Fischer, 1814, names.

ISIS NUMBER: 5301410008075000000.
