Zool. Soc. Lond., 1837: 75 . Type Locality: Australia , New South Wales , north of Hunter River. Vernacular Names: Yellow-footed Antechinus . Subspecies: : Subspecies Antechinus flavipes subsp. flavipes Waterhouse 1837 Subspecies Antechinus flavipes subsp. rubeculus Van Dyck 1982 Distribution: Cape York Peninsula ( Queensland ); Victoria and SE South Australia ; SW Western Australia . In SE Australia , bioclimatic modeling predicts its range as (somewhat discontinuously) from about 23°N to S Victoria , and west to about 136°E on the South Australian coast. Inland, it may reach as far as about 145°E in S New South Wales ( Sumner and Dickman, 1998 ). Conservation: Lower Risk (lc). Discussion: No direct comparisons between Western Australian and eastern forms of the species have been made. The Cape York Peninsula form appears to be only subspecifically distinct.
