Species Diplothrix legata (Thomas 1906)

Discussion: Rattus Division. Member of a clade containing genera more closely related to Rattus than to other murines. Endemic, along with Tokudaia , to the Ryukyu Isls between the Tokara and Kerama Straits. Suzuki et al. (2000:23) noted that "the genetic constitution of the rodents in the Okinawa area is distinct from that of the rodents in the surrounding areas, including the Japanese mainland and Taiwan.... in the region of the Central Ryukyus, mammals with a unique and ancient origin have inhabited a small geographic region.".
