Robert, original number 1224. Type locality. Engenheiro Reeve, Espirito Santo, Brazil, elevation between 400—600 m. Distribution. Southeastern Brazil in the States of Minas Gerais, Espirito Santo, Rio de Janeiro, Säo Paulo, Santa Catarina and Paraná (Voss 1993: 31). Characters. See comparisons with D. dorsalis. Karyotype. 2n = 72, FN = 90 (Yonenaga 1975: 283). Nomenclature. The history of the fossil cranium of a Delomys recovered by Lund from cave deposits near Lagoa Santa, Minas Gerais, and subsequently described as Calomys plebejus by Winge (1887) has been reviewed by Voss (1993: 32). Identification of plebejus as a Delomys, first made by Avila Pires (1960), was accepted without qualification by Voss. Equation of plebejus with sublineatus, however, was rejected. Voss (1993: 34) argued that "synonymizing plebejus Winge 1887 with sublineatus Thomas, 1903 would have the highly undesirable consequence of replacing a type specimen with many characters useful for species discrimination by another with none. Thus, although there is no evidence that the taxon.
