Calomyscus bailwardi Thomas, 1905 . Abstr. Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1905(24):23.

TYPE LOCALITY: Iran, Khuzistan, 120 km SE Ahwaz, Mala-i-Mir (= Jzeh) .

DISTRIBUTION: Iran.

SYNONYMS: grandis .

COMMENTS: True bailwardi has been recorded only from Iran; its range as usually described in the literature (Corbet, 1978c) represents other species of Calomyscus (Vorontsov et al., 1979) . Our distributional sketch is documented by specimens from C Iran (in the Field Museum of Natural History) and records from SW Iran (Vorontsov et al., 1979). Schütter and Setzer (1973) described grandis as a subspecies of C. bailwardi .
