Microtus (Terricola) savii niethammericus Contoli, 

 2003 



Hystrix, Italian Journal of Mammalogy (n.s.) 14: 109 

 Lectotype. Here designated: ZFMK 2003.928, adult fe- 

 male (6 teats visible), flat skin and skull; Foresta Umbra, 

 12 km in direction Monte San Angelo (41.13N 15.58E), 

 750 m, Monte Gargano, Italy, collected by J. Niethammer, 

 23 Mar 1980; field no. 6124. 



Paralectotypes. 19 skins and 20 skulls (11 females, 9 

 males), all from type locality Foresta Umbra between 700 

 and 750 m in 1980; ZFMK 2003.916-2003.927, 2003.929- 

 2003.936. 



Current name. Microtus savii (de Selys-Langchamps, 

 1838); see Musser & Carleton (2005). 

 Comments. Contoli (2000: 40) named this taxon Micro- 

 tus (Terricola) savii niethammeri, a nomen nudum and 

 homonym of Microtus (Terricola) multiplex niethammeri 

 Brunet-Lecompte & Volobouev, 1994. In 2003, he re- 

 named it niethammericus and provided a short description 

 (3 pairs of teats in females, X chromosome acrocentric) 

 and type locality (Foresta Umbra), based on the work of 

 Niethammer ( 1 98 1 ). He also listed a series of 2 1 syntypes 

 (ZFMK 2003.916 - 2003.936), based on the paper of Ni- 

 ethammer (1981) and on correspondence with one of us 

 (RH). No holotype was fixed. We selected a specimen as 

 the lectotype which exhibits one of the diagnostic traits 

 (3 pairs of teats), and which has a skull in good condi- 

 tion. Vouchers for the karyotype of 2n = 54 ( 1 male, 1 fe- 

 male; Niethammer 1981: 46, fig. 1) are among the para- 

 lectotypes. 



Nesoryzomys fernandinae Hutterer & Hirsch, 1980 

 Bonn. zool. Beitr. 30: 276, fig. 2 (28 Dec) 

 Holotype. ZFMK 79.370, skull of an adult individual, in- 

 terparietale missing, tip of nasalia damaged, from owl pel- 

 lets; Fernandina Island, 300 m, Galapagos Islands, 

 Ecuador, collected by U. Hirsch, June 1979.
