Tatera valida

Description

Tatera valida (Bocage, 1890). J. Sei. Math. Phys. Nat. Lisboa, 2:6.

TYPE LOCALITY: W. Angola, Rio Cuando.

DISTRIBUTION: Senegal to Cameroun, Sudan, Ethiopia, and Kenya to S.W. Tanzania, Zambia, and Angola.

COMMENT: Includes benvenuta, dichrura, flavipes, gambiana, hopkinsoni, kempi, nigrita, taborae, and wellmani; see Davis, 1975, Part 6.4:3-4. Hubert et al., 1973, Mammalia, 37:76-87, suggested that gambiana and kempi may be conspecific, but listed the junior name gambiana as a distinct species. Rosevear, 1969, The Rodents of West Africa, Br. Mus. Lond., included gambiana in kempi, and also listed hopkinsoni and wellmani as distinct species. Matthey and Petter, 1970, listed valida in Taterillus.
