Distribution: SE Tobasco ( Mexico) south to NW Colombia.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc) as H. desmarestianus ; Lower Risk (nt) as H. goldmani .

Discussion: Subgenus Heteromys . Goodwin (1969) and Rogers and Schmidly (1982) provided partial revisions. I follow Rogers (1990) and Williams et al. (1993) and include goldmani (contra Patton, 1993 b). Subspecies listed by Williams et al. (1993). Given the extent of chromosomal and allozymic diversity ( Rogers, 1989, 1990), desmarestianus is likely to be composite, with several described taxa to be elevated to species status and additional species to be described ( R. P. Anderson, pers. comm.).
