Proedromys Thomas, 1911 . Abstr. Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 90:4.

REVIEWED BY: S. R. Leffler (SRL).

COMMENT: Monotypic; retained as a genus following Wang et al., 1966, Acta Zootax. Sin., 3:85-91, and Gromov and Polyakov, 1977:243; but also see Corbet, 1978: 110, who included Proedromys in Microtus following Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951, who considered it a subgenus. Martin, R. A., 1974, in Webb, ed., Pleistocene Mammals of Florida, p. 61, suggested that this genus “may eventually" be included in Neodon .
