Discussion: Generic-level affinities uncertain ( Osgood, 1943): left as Sigmodontinae incertae sedis by some ( Hershkovitz, 1962; Reig, 1980, 1981, 1984; Smith and Patton, 1999; Steppan, 1995) or formally assigned to Tribe Phyllotini by others ( Braun, 1993; McKenna and Bell, 1997; Olds and Anderson, 1989; Vorontsov, 1959). Pacheco and Patton (1995) provided a synopsis of distributional records, specific discrimination, and natural history.
