Discussion: Salpingotini. The subgeneric arrangement hypothesized by Vorontsov and Shenbrot (1984), based on morphometric analyses and skull, dental, and genital morphology, is followed here, except that Salpingotulus is recognized at the generic level (see that account). Comparative myology of pelvic girdle studied by Fokin (1971). Distribution of species of Salpingotus shown in Shenbrot et al. (1995) and Vorontsov and Shenbrot (1984).
