“…Weksler, personal commun., 2004). There remains ambiguity concerning the relationships of true laticeps, which is known only from its lectotype (Musser et al, 1998;Weksler et al, 1999). As we do not resolve this issue, we follow Musser et al (1998), Patton et al (2000), and Costa (2003) (Patton et al, 2000), and we here follow Costa (2003) in using a restricted definition of the megacephalus complex that excludes O. yunganus.…”

“…One of these, the megacephalus complex, includes at least four currently recognized species, O. megacephalus Fischer, 1814, O. perenensis Allen, 1901, O. laticeps Lund, 1840, and O. yunganus Thomas, 1902. Another named species, O. seuanezi Weksler, Geise, and Cerqueira, 1999, from the Atlantic forests of Brazil, includes the coastal populations designated as O. laticeps by Patton et al (2000) and Costa (2003;M. Weksler, personal commun., 2004).…”

“…However, it harbors an astonishingly high biodiversity, and new mammal species are still described (Weksler et al 1999, de Oliveira & Bonvicino 2002, Leite 2003, Mendes Pontes et al, 2006, Costa et al 2007). …”

“…The endemicity of small mammals is documented not only for the Atlantic Forest (Voss, 1993;Hershkovitz, 1998;Weksler et al, 1999) but also for the Cerrado biome (Gomes, 1991;Hershkovitz, 1990Hershkovitz, , 1993Hershkovitz, , 1994Palma & Yates, 1998;Bonvicino et al, , 1999 and the Cerrado and Caatinga biomes (Moojen et al, 1997;. The controversy regarding the taxonomy of Brazilian small mammals and the following difficulty for a correct identification of the species have been commented in conservation studies (Marinho-Filho et al, 1994).…”
