The Mesic Four-striped Grass Rat (''Rhabdomys dilectus'') is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. ==Taxonomy== Traditionally the genus Rhabdomys has been seen as a single species, ''Rhabdomys pumilio'', though modern evidence on the basis of karyotype and mtDNA analysis suggests that it comprises a second species, ''Rhabdomys dilectus'' .〔Castiglia, R., Solano, E., Makundi, R. H., Hulselmans, J., Verheyen, E. and Colangelo, P. (2011), Rapid chromosomal evolution in the mesic four-striped grass rat Rhabdomys dilectus (Rodentia, Muridae) revealed by mtDNA phylogeographic analysis. Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research. 〕 ''R. dilectus'' is divided in the following subspecies. *''R.d.dilectus'' (karyotypic form 2n = 46): Lesotho, southafrican province of KwaZulu-Natal and eastern Zimbabwe; *''R.d.angolae'' (Wroughton, 1905): central and southern Angola; *''R.d.diminutus'' (Thomas, 1893): central and western Kenya, central-eastern Uganda, highlands of central-northern Tanzania, south-east Democratic Republic of Congo, northern Malawi; 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rhabdomys dilectus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
