Species Salpingotulus michaelis (Fitzgibbon 1966)

Discussion: Salpingotini ( Pavlinov, 1980 b). Proposed by Pavlinov (1980 b) based upon genital morphology, tooth characters, and shape of the condylar process on the dentary. Results of a morphometric and qualitative study of Salpingotus by Vorontsov and Shenbrot (1984) showed substructure within the genus based on overall morphological similarity (phenetic analyses), with michaelis joining the clusters of other Salpingotus at a high level of dissimilarity, followed by S. kozlovi . Their results indicated that generic separation of michaelis was not supported, particularly if kozlovi was retained in Salpingotus , so they treated Salpingotulus as a subgenus. Pavlinov and Rossolimo (1987:162) suggested that kozlovi might belong in Salpingotulus , and the latter has either been included in Salpingotus (e.g., Holden, 1993; Shenbrot et al., 1995; Vorontsov and Shenbrot, 1984) or recognized as a separate genus ( Pavlinov and Rossolimo, 1998; Pavlinov et al., 1995; Zazhigin and Lopatin, 2000 a). We treat Salpingotulus as a separate monophyletic group until analyses prepared within a phylogenetic (cladistic) context demonstrates otherwise; such a study has yet to be done.
