Type Locality: Guatemala, Huehuetenango Dept., Todos Santos, 10,000 ft (3048 m).

Vernacular Names: Small-toothed Harvest Mouse.

Synonyms: Reithrodontomys (Aporodon) albilabris Merriam 1901 ; Reithrodontomys (Aporodon) wagneri Hooper 1950 .

Discussion: Subgenus Aporodon , tenuirostris species group. Included forms doubtfully conspecific; e.g., in cladistic reconstructions based on allozymic data, Guatemalan and Mexican samples of R. microdon are paraphyletic with respect to R. tenuirostris ( Arellano et al., 2003) .
