Akodon (Akodon) albiventer Thomas 1897 , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 6, 20: 217.

Type Locality: Argentina, Salta Prov., Bajo Río Cachí.

Vernacular Names: White-bellied Akodont.

Synonyms: Akodon (Akodon) berlepschii Thomas 1898 .

Distribution: SE Perú, through SW Bolivia, to N Argentina and extreme NE Chile.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Subgenus Akodon . Sometimes referenced as a member of Bolomys ( Bianchi et al., 1971; Gardner and Patton, 1976), but its inclusion, together with berlepschii , within Akodon proper is more strongly supported based on morphlogical comparisons and molecular analyses (D’Elía et al., 2003; Pine et al., 1979; Reig, 1987). Anderson (1997) retained berlepschii as a valid subspecies.
