| dc.description.abstract | "While examining material of the Antillean capromyid Isolobodon portoricensis, we discovered that the specimen designated by Allen (1916) as the holotype of this species has been consistently misidentified in the literature (e.g., Lawrence, 1993). In this paper we correct this error and make some observations on Allen's (1916) designated type series in the AMNH-M collections. Additionally, we analyze information bearing on the extinction date of I. portoricensis and its purported utilization by humans as a food resource"--P. [1]. | en_US |
