Clidomys osborni Anthony 1920 View in CoL

Clidomys osborni Anthony 1920 View in CoL , Bull. Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., 42: 469.

Type Locality: Jamaica, Balaclava, Wallingford Roadside Cave.

Vernacular Names: Osborn's Key Mouse.

Synonyms: Clidomys cundalli (Anthony 1920) ; Clidomys jamaicensis (Anthony 1920) ; Clidomys major (Anthony 1920) ; Clidomys parvus (Anthony 1920) .

Distribution: Jamaica.

Conservation: Extinct.

Discussion: C. parvus is here synomized with C. osborni based on Morgan and Wilkins (2003), who noted the wide size range of C. osborni specimens from Slue's Cave, Jamaica. They interpreted this size range to indicate that C. osborni is the only valid species of Clidomys present in Jamaica.
