Treatment

Tylomys nudicaudus Peters 1866 , Monatsb. K. Preuss. Akad. Wiss. Berlin, 1866: 404.

Type Locality: Guatemala.

Vernacular Names: Peter's Climbing Rat.

Synonyms: Tylomys gymnurus Villa 1941 ; Tylomys microdon Goodwin 1955 ; Tylomys villai Schaldach 1966 .

Distribution: C Guerrero and C Veracruz, Mexico, south to S Nicaragua, excluding Yucatan Peninsula.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Goodwin (1934) passingly noted that La Primavera (Dept. Alto Verapaz) may be the type locality, a restriction which should be formally considered by a future revisor. Goodwin (1969) relegated gymnurus to a subspecies of T. nudicaudus .
