Cerradomys
''Cerradomys'' is a genus of oryzomyine rodents from eastern Bolivia, Paraguay, and central Brazil found in cerrado, Caatinga and Gran Chaco habitats. The species in this genus have historically been placed in ''Oryzomys'', but according to cladistic research, they are not more closely related to the type species of ''Oryzomys'' than species in some other genera are. Its sister group may be a clade of oryzomyines living in open or aquatic habitats, comprising, among others, ''Aegialomys'', ''Nectomys'' and ''Sigmodontomys''. '' Sooretamys angouya'', also formerly in ''Oryzomys'', is another relative; it has been placed in the same group as the species of ''Cerradomys'' in the past. The generic name ''Cerradomys'' is a compound of the word "Cerrado" and the Ancient Greek ''mys'' "mouse" and therefore means "Cerrado mouse". The dorsal pelage is brownish, the ventral pelage, greyish. It has small ears and a relatively long tail. There are crowns of hair on the hindfeet at the bas ...

Cerradomys Scotti
''Cerradomys scotti'', also known as Lindbergh's oryzomys, is a rodent species from South America in the genus ''Cerradomys''. It is terrestrial and is found in the cerrado (savanna) ecozone of south central Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. The species is common and appears to tolerate a degree of agricultural habitat modification. It was first described in 2002 as ''Oryzomys scotti'', after zoologist Scott Lindbergh. In 2004, another new species, ''Oryzomys andersoni'', was described by a team from Texas Tech University on the basis of a specimen taken at Pozo Mario, Santa Cruz Department, southeastern Bolivia. It was named after eminent mammalogist Sydney Anderson in honor of his contributions to the study of Bolivian mammals.Brooks et al., 2004, p. 3 It was subsequently recognized as belonging to the same species as ''Oryzomys scotti'' on the basis of morphological and molecular evidence. In 2006, the species was transferred to the new genus ''Cerradomys'', so that it became know ...

Oryzomyini
Oryzomyini is a tribe of rodents in the subfamily Sigmodontinae of the family Cricetidae. It includes about 120 species in about thirty genera,Weksler et al., 2006, table 1 distributed from the eastern United States to the southernmost parts of South America, including many offshore islands. It is part of the clade Oryzomyalia, which includes most of the South American Sigmodontinae. The name ''Oryzomyini'' derives from that of its type genus, ''Oryzomys'', which means "rice rat" or "rice mouse". Many species are also known as rice rats. Taxonomy Contents of Oryzomyini An oryzomyine group was first envisaged by Oldfield Thomas in the early 20th century. He defined it to include pentalophodont species, which have a mesoloph(id) on the upper and lower molars, with a long palate (extending past the third molars). Thomas included ''Oligoryzomys'', ''Oecomys'', and ''Oryzomys'' (which included many species now in other genera), as well as '' Rhagomys'', which is currently classified ...

Oryzomys
''Oryzomys'' is a genus of semiaquatic rodents in the tribe Oryzomyini living in southern North America and far northern South America. It includes eight species, two of which—the marsh rice rat (''O. palustris'') of the United States and '' O. couesi'' of Mexico and Central America—are widespread; the six others have more restricted distributions. The species have had eventful taxonomic histories, and most species were at one time included in the marsh rice rat; additional species may be recognized in the future. The name ''Oryzomys'' was established in 1857 by Spencer Fullerton Baird for the marsh rice rat and was soon applied to over a hundred species of American rodents. Subsequently, the genus gradually became more narrowly defined until its current contents were established in 2006, when ten new genera were established for species previously placed in ''Oryzomys''. Species of ''Oryzomys'' are medium-sized rats with long, coarse fur. The upperparts are gray ...
