Eothenomys wardi Thomas 1912 View in CoL

Eothenomys wardi Thomas 1912 View in CoL , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 8, 9: 516.

Type Locality: China, NW Yunnan, Chamutong (= Tra-mu-tang), west of Atunsi, 13,000 ft ( Kaneko, 1996 b, provided additional information) .

Vernacular Names: Ward's Red-backed Vole.

Distribution: Extreme NW Yunnan in the Mekong and Salween valleys, 2400-4250 m ( Corbet and Hill, 1992; Kaneko, 1996 b).

Discussion: E. chinensis species group. Placed in the genus Anteliomys by Hinton (1923). Described as a species by Thomas, recognized as such by Hinton (1923, 1926 a) and Ellerman (1941), but usually included in E. chinensis (G. M. Allen, 1940; Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951; Musser and Carleton, 1993; Pavlinov et al., 1995 a). Corbet and Hill (1992) and Kaneko (1996 b), however, followed Thomas because wardi has a much shorter tail and hind feet, and appreciably smaller auditory bulla than specimens of chinensis , and is latitudinally isolated from that species.
