Species and subspecies: 1 species:

Species Podomys floridanus (Chapman 1889)

Discussion: Reithrodontomyini. Named as a subgenus of Peromyscus by Osgood (1909) and maintained as such by Hooper (1968). Carleton (1980, 1989) argued for generic recognition, a ranking disputed by others (Rogers et al., 1984; Stangl and Baker, 1984 b). Various morphological features suggest relationship to Neotomodon and-or Habromys ( Carleton, 1980; Hooper and Musser, 1964 b; Linzey and Layne, 1969). Accessory reproductive glands and spermatozoan morphology described by Linzey and Layne (1969, 1974).
