Discussion: Brisson (1762) was ruled unavailable ( International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, 1955 a); however, Lutra was ruled as still available ( ICZN, 1998). Pocock (1921 c, 1941 a) recognized Lutrogale Gray, 1865 , and Hydrictis Pocock, 1921 . Harris (1968) and van Zyll de Jong (1987, 1991 a) considered lutra , maculicollis , and sumatrana to represent a single monophyletic group; furthermore, van Zyll de Jong's analysis supported separation of perspicillata from other Lutra , which is followed here. Van Zyll de Jong (1972) referred New World otters to Lontra (see comment therein). McKenna and Bell (1997) included Lontra in Lutra ; otherwise allocated according to McKenna and Bell (1997).
