Oryzomys saturatior Merriam 1901 View in CoL , Proc. Wash. Acad. Sci., 3: 290.

Type Locality: México, Chiapas State, Tumbalá, 5000 ft (1524 m).

Vernacular Names: Cloud Forest Oryzomys.

Synonyms: Oryzomys hylocetes Merriam 1901 .

Distribution: Cloud forest elevations from S Oaxaca and Chiapas, México, through Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, to NC Nicaragua.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Described as a subspecies of O. chapmani ( Merriam, 1901 a) and later retained as a subspecies of O. alfaroi ( Goldman, 1918; Hall and Kelson, 1959). The divergence of O. chapmani and O. saturatior , whose populations are confined to wet montane forest separated by the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, suggests that they are sister species.
