BRITO, Jorge  and  ARGUERO, Alfonso. Nuevas localidades para tres especies de mamíferos pequeños (Rodentia: Cricetidae) escasamente conocidos en Ecuador. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2016, vol.23, n.2, pp.521-527. ISSN 0327-9383.

On the basis of field efforts and a review of mammal collections, we report new localities in Ecuador for three rare small mammal species. We report extensions of the ranges of distribution for Tanyuromys aphrastus, Thomasomys fumeus and Thomasomys hudsoni. The Ecuatorian Andean region requires additional sampling efforts, in order to better document the richness and distribution of small mammals.

Keywords : Tanyuromys aphrastus; Thomasomys fumeus; Thomasomys hudsoni.
