[Taeromys] arcuatus ( Tate and Archbold 1935) View in CoL , Am. Mus . Novit., 802: 9.

Type Locality: Indonesia, SE Sulawesi, Pegunnungan Mekongga (= Mengkoka), Tanke Salokko (highest spot on the mountain), 03E35'S/121E15'E, 1500 m.

Vernacular Names: Southeastern Mountain Taeromys.

Distribution: Known only from the type locality.

Conservation: IUCN – Vulnerable.

Discussion: Closest relative is an undescribed species in mountains of C Sulawesi ( Musser and Holden, 1991; Musser, ms). This geographic pattern, in which a species in the central part of the island has a close ally on the SE Peninsula, is repeated by Taeromys callitrichus (central) and T. microbullatus (southeast), an undescribed species of Maxomys (central) and M. dollmani (southeast), and Rattus marmosurus (central) and R. salocco (southeast). Sody (1941) proposed Arcuomys for arcuatus .
