Description
Summary:Hall, in 1968 determines that Peromyscus furvus is a monotypic species, being P. latirostris and P. angustirostris synonymies of the first one, although him indicates that there is certain variation grade inside the species. In later works, where the situation of the species is analyzed starting from aloenzimas (Harris and Rogers, 1999) and of cytochrome b (Harris et al., 2000) studies, a variation grade is also noticed among the populations that conform to the species. However, in none of them works clears up the systematic situation of the species. For the above-mentioned, presently work is carried out a revision of the systematic state of P. furvus starting from mitochondrial genes (ND3-ND4). This genes show the possible existence of two subpoblaciones along its distribution. The first one would correspond the population of Puerto de la Soledad, Oax. and the second would include the central populations of their distribution. Also, a third population is observed (La Esperanza, Oax.), the one which, seemingly, it belongs to another different species. Key words: Molecular systematic, ND3-ND4, genetic differentiation, cloud mountain forest.
