Species and subspecies: 6 species:

Species Pseudantechinus bilarni Johnson 1954

Species Pseudantechinus macdonnellensis (Spencer 1896)

Species Pseudantechinus mimulus (Thomas 1906)

Species Pseudantechinus ningbing Kitchener 1988

Discussion: Separated from Antechinus by Archer (1982:434), but retained in it by McKenna and Bell (1997). According to molecular evidence, it is not even closely related to Antechinus , but forms a distinctive genus of the Dasyurini ( Krajewski et al., 1997 a).
