, demonstrating minor diffeences observed in morphology and color among these taxa. Elevation of these forms to distinct species was originally based on karyotypic differentiation but has been further supported by morphometric and molecular analyses. Six distinct karyotypes, five of which were sampled from a different province have been reported for C. bailward.. Specimens collected from near the type locality in the Khuzistan Province have a karyotype with a diploid number of 2n = 46 and an autosomal fundamental number of FNa = 44, whereas a karyotype with a 2n = 37 and FNa = 40 has been found in the northwestern Zagros Mountains, Bahtaran (= Kermanshah) Province. In the southern part of this mountain range, karyotypes with a 2n = 52 and FNa = 56 and 2n = 50 and FNa=48 or 50 have been found in Kerman and Fars provinces respectively. Specimens of

from southern and central parts ofits distribution (Fars, Kerman, southern Yazd, and central Hormozgan provinces) form a monophyletic clade with material from near the type locality (Khuzestan Province) in phylogenetic analyses of mitochondrial sequences. The level of genetic divergence between the subclade from near the type locality and the clade containing samples southeast of the type locality suggests the presence of more than a single species. In these same analyses, this clade falls within a “southern clade” that also includes

Head-body 80-92 mm, tail 81-92 mm, ear 18-20 mm, hindfoot 19-22 mm; weight 17-22 g. Ears and hindfeet of the Zagros Mountains Brush-tailed Mouse are similar in length, and tail is only slightly longer than head-body length. It is pinkish buff but darker on back due to presence of black-tipped hairs. Head is buffy and slightly paler than back. Belly is pure white, with sharp demarcation with buffy pelage along flanks. White pelage extends to cheeks and nearly to eyes. Dorsal surface offeet is white, and tail is bicolored with grayish buff above and white below. Ears are naked, pale grayish brown, with small white patches at bases. Skull is small and narrow, with condylobasal lengths of 22:4-23-7 mm and zygomatic breadths of 12:2-13-2 mm. M is wider than in most other species of brush-tailed mice.

Juvenile Zagros Mountains Brush-tailed Mice with body weights of 7-16 g have been collected from the southern Zagros Mountains in late April and early May. Lactating females, each with four placental scars, were found in December along with an additional female with two uterine swellings. These data suggest the littersizes are 2—4 young.
