Abstract: Abstract:The genus Oecomys Thomas, 1906 is currently composed of 16 species with unclear taxonomy and poorly known geographic limits. O. catherinae Thomas, 1909 is known to occur within the Brazilian Atlantic Forest from the states of Santa Catarina to Pernambuco (where the northernmost previously known specimen of Oecomys in the Atlantic forest was recorded), and along riverine forest into the Cerrado. To gain a greater understanding of its geographical and ecological distribution (mainly in Northeastern Bra… Show more

“…We used molecular, cytogenetic, morphological and geographic data to delimit species and species groups within the genus Oecomys, as the concordance among these complementary approaches provided solid evidence for taxon delimitation. We also compared cytogenetic data from literature (Patton et al, 2000;Andrades-Miranda et al, 2001;Langguth et al, 2005;Asfora et al, 2011) with morphologically characterized specimens with similar karyotypes and/or phylogenetic relationships. Since we did not examine vouchers from sequences downloaded from GenBank, the names used were assigned by the original authors who performed taxonomic identification based on morphological analyses of the vouchers (see Supporting Information, Table S1).…”

“…Name attributions to clades, whether species or species groups, were based on morphological comparisons of the specimens assigned to them with the descriptions and characterizations of valid taxa of Oecomys (Patton et al, 2000;Voss et al, 2001;Weksler, 2006;Carleton et al, 2009;Asfora et al, 2011;Percequillo et al, 2011;Rocha et al, 2011;Rosa et al, 2012;Carleton & Musser, 2015;Pardiñas et al, 2016). We examined most of the specimens included in the molecular analyses and specimens not sequenced but with similar morphology from nearby regions (see specimens examined in Appendix II).…”
