Abstract
NOVILLO, Agustina; OJEDA, Agustina and OJEDA, Ricardo. Loxodontomys pikumche (Rodentia, Cricetidae): A new species for Argentina. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2009, vol.16, n.1, pp.239-242. ISSN 0327-9383.
We report the first record of occurrence of Loxodontomys pikumche Spotorno et al., 1998, in the Central Andes of Argentina. We briefly describe external characters, skull, karyotype, and habitat; also, we provide general comparisons with the other known species in the genus, L. micropus.
