Mus kasaicus (Cabrera, 1924). Boi. Real. Soc. Espanola Hist. Nat., Madrid, 24:222. TYPE LOCALITY: Zaire, Kasai, St. Joseph de Kananga (Luluabourg). DISTRIBUTION: Recorded only from the vicinity of the type locality. COMMENTS: Subgenus Nannomys. Now treated as a distinct species belonging to the M. sorella group (Petter, 1981b), but its relationship to that species needs to be assessed in a careful revision of the M. sorella complex (see account of the latter).
