A chronology of the genus Thylamys (Didelphidae, Thylamyini), with emphasis in the forms occurring in Argentina

Abstract

El género Thylamys incluye varias especies de pequeños marsupiales que viven predominantemente en regiones áridas y semiáridas de Sudamérica. En Argentina, donde el género tiene más especies, se han reconocido diferentes especies (T. bruchi, T. citellus, T. pallidior, T. pulchellus, T. sponsorius, and T. venustus), pero su taxonomía sigue siendo confusa. En este trabajo, resumo lo que sabemos sobre la sistemática y taxonomía de Thylamys en Argentina, incluyendo las principales fuentes de controversia entre especies. También proporciono diagnosis diferenciales para las especies que reconozco, una cresonimia y mapas de distribución actuales. Finalmente, describo los principales problemas que deben abordarse para mejorar nuestra comprensión del género en Argentina.

The genus Thylamys includes several species of small mouse opossums living predominantly in aridand semi-arid regions of South America. In Argentina, where the genus has more species, different species have been recognized (T. bruchi, T. citellus, T. pallidior, T. pulchellus, T. sponsorius, and T. venustus), but their taxonomy is still confusing. Here, I summarize what we know of the systematics and taxonomy of Thylamys in Argentina, including the main sources of controversy between species. I also provide a differential diagnosis for the species I recognize, a chresonymy, and current distribution maps. Finally, I describe the main issues that should be addressed to improve our understanding of the genus in Argentina.
