Many other genera of mammals, among them Hylomyscus, Hybomys, Otomys, and Cricetomys are problematical in this geographical region and are in need of revision. Such problems are critical for zoogeographical analyses, as a wrong taxonomy may spoil the entire analysis. Before we started to think about the relation of the newly studied fauna to other faunas of forest islands on different plateaus of the.
