Euryoryzomys Weksler, Percequillo & Voss 2006

The genus Euryoryzomys comprises six species, E. emmonsae ( Musser, Carleton, Gardner & Brothers 1998) , E. lamia (Thomas 1901) , E. legatus (Thomas 1925) , E. macconnelli (Thomas 1910) , E. nitidus (Thomas 1884) , and E. russatus (Wagner 1848) . The species inhabit forests throughout the cis Andean tropical and subtropical lowlands of South America, including Amazonia, the Guianas, southeastern Brazil, eastern Bolivia, northern Argentina, and eastern Paraguay ( Musser et al. 1998; Weksler et al. 2006; Percequillo 2015c). All cytogenetic data available for the genus was presented on Table 3, and the distribution of diploid and fundamental number of karyotyped specimens were presented on Fig. 3 .
