Distribution.
Trinomys minor is endemic to the Cerrado and the Caatinga (not Carmignotto et al. 2012, Paglia et al. 2012), and has been recorded in the Brazilian state of Bahia ( Pessôa et al. 2015b).
Taxonomy.
See the Taxonomy section of Trinomys albispinus (above).
Conservation status.
The red list of the IUCN ver. 3.1 has not yet attempted to evaluate the extinction risk of Trinomys minor , and although the IUCN acknowledged that the Iack-Ximenes’s (2005) unpublished Ph.D. dissertation concluded that minor merited species-level recognition, it treated minor as a subspecies of Trinomys albispinus (see Bonvicino et al. 2016). The species was not included in the official list of threatened species of Brazil ( ICMBIO-MMA 2016).
