COMMENTS: Formerly included Bunolagus ; see Petter (1972b); and originally all other genera except Pentalagus . The taxonomy of this genus remains controversial. L. crawshayi (including whytei), peguensis , ruficaudatus , and siamensis have been variously treated as separate species or have been included in nigricollis . L. europaeus , corsicanus , granatensis , tolai , and tibetanus have been placed in capensis or treated as distinct species; see comments therein.
