Genetic relationships of Caribbean lowland spiny pocket mice (Heteromys desmarestianus: Rodentia; Heteromyidae): evidence of a distinct mitochondrial lineage [PDF]
, 2020 Genetic studies provide important insights into the evolutionary history and taxonomy of species, allowing us to identify lineages dif-ficult to distinguish morphologically. The relationships among species in the genus Heteromys have been in flux as new

Are the Heteromyidae paraphyletic? Molecular phylogenetics of extant geomyoid rodents
TheryaThe superfamily Geomyoidea includes the Geomyidae (pocket gophers: 7 genera, 42 species) and Heteromyidae (pocket mice, kangaroo mice, and kangaroo rats: 5 genera, 69 species). Analyses of both morphological and molecular data have confirmed the monophyly of the superfamily relative to other rodents but have cast doubts on the reciprocal monophyly of ...
