Acomys (Acomys) chudeaui Kollman 1911 View in CoL , Abh. Bayer Akad. Wiss. Math. Naturwiss. Kl., 3: 195.

Type Locality: Mauritania, Atar, SW of Biskra.

Vernacular Names: Chudeau's Spiny Mouse.

Distribution: Western Sahara: Recorded from C Morocco (mapped by Aulagnier and Thevenot, 1986, as cahirinus ) and W Mauritania ( Benazzou, 1983; Le Berre, 1990); geographic limits unresolved.

Discussion: Subgenus Acomys . Usually listed in the synonymy of A. cahirinus (e. g., Musser and Carleton, 1993), but chromosomal data ( Benazzou, 1983; 2n = 40 for chudeaui , 2n = 36 for cahirinus ) has been used to support species status ( Le Berre, 1990; Le Berre and Le Guelte, 1990) as a member of the A. cahirinus-A. dimidiatus group ( Benazzou, 1983). Denys et al. (1994) described distinguishing dental differences between A. chudeaui , A. cahirinus , and the Algerian A. seurati , suggesting they reflected differences among species. The precise phylogenetic relationships among A. chudeaui , A. seurati , and A. airensis (in which 2n varies from 40 to 46) require resolution.
