Description
Marmosa (Marmosa) tyleriana Tate, 1931
TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: AMNH 76983, the holotype by original designation, consists of the skin and skull of an adult female collected at an expeditionary locality known as Central Camp (ca. 3.38° N, 65.58° W; 1400 m) on the Mt. Duida massif, Amazonas state, Venezuela.
SYNONYMS: phelpsi Tate, 1939.
DISTRIBUTION: This species is known from just a few localities in the Guiana highlands of southern Venezuela at elevations from 1300 to 2100 m (Creighton and Gardner, 2008a: map 24).
REMARKS: Marmosa tyleriana is the sister taxon of a clade that contains all the other species in the subgenus Marmosa (Voss et al., 2014). Rossi (2005) provided a detailed morphological description and tabulated measurement data of the specimens he examined, but additional measurement data were reported by Ochoa (1985).
