Neotoma (Neotoma) goldmani Merriam 1903 View in CoL
Neotoma (Neotoma) goldmani Merriam 1903 View in CoL , Proc. Biol. Soc. Wash., 16: 48.
Type Locality: México, Coahuila, Saltillo, 5000 ft (1524 m).
Vernacular Names: Goldman's Woodrat.
Distribution: Mexican Plateau, 1160-2320 m, from SE Chihuahua to S San Luis Potosí and N Querétaro, México.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Subgenus Neotoma , floridana species group ( sensu Edwards and Bradley, 2002 b ). Chomosomal formula viewed as primitive for the genus ( Harris and McCullough, 1988; Lee and Elder, 1977). Species group affinity variously interpreted, associated with N. lepida ( Goldman, 1910) or N. albigula ( Rainey and Baker, 1955) ; cytochrome b evaluations decidedly relate N. goldmani to the N. albigula and N. floridana clade (Edwards et al., 2001; Edwards and Bradley, 2002 b). See Hrachovy et al. (1996, Mammalian Species, 545).
