Hadromys humei (Thomas 1886) View in CoL

[Mus] humei Thomas 1886 , Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1886: 63.

Type Locality: India, Manipur, Moirang.

Vernacular Names: Hume's Hadromys.

Distribution: NE India (Manipur and NW Assam; Musser, 1987 b; Agrawal, 2000).

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Reviewed by Musser (1987 a). The species occurred throughout Thailand to Songkla Province in peninsular Thailand at the Thai-Malay border (south of the present Isthmus of Kra, 10E30' N) during middle Pleistocene, about 137,000 years ago, judged by fossilized molars identified as H. humei ( Chaimanee and Jaeger, 2000 b) . During that earlier time Thailand, and most likely other parts of the Indomalayan region may have been dominated by drier and cooler climates and extensive savanna environments similar to the habitats in which H. humei is found today. In the context of this past distribution, the present range of H. humei appears to be relictual ( Chaimanee and Jaeger, 2000 b).
