Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 6, 14: 346 . Type Species: Neotomys ebriosus Thomas 1894 Species and subspecies: 1 species: Species Neotomys ebriosus Thomas 1894 Discussion: Reithrodontini. Although grouped with sigmodont rodents by Hershkovitz (1955 a ) , other studies have convincingly linked the genus with phyllotines ( Olds and Anderson, 1989 ; Pearson and Patton, 1976 ; Spotorno et al., 2001 ), usually as sister genus of Reithrodon ( Braun, 1993 ; Steppan, 1995 ) and in a clade including Euneomys and certain fossil genera ( Ortiz et al., 2000 b ; Pardiñas, 1997; Steppan and Pardiñas, 1998; Steppan and Sullivan, 2000 ). See remarks under Reithrodon on tribal affiliation.
