 Comments
       
  Comment: Status: IUCN - Lower Risk (lc). Considered vulnerable by Bonvicino et al. (1998a)  
    Comments: Retained as a species (e.g., Gyldenstolpe, 1932; Musser and Carleton, 1993) until reallocated to the synonymy of O. russatus by Musser et al. (1998). However, clear morphometric differentiation (Musser et al., 1998) and divergent karyotype (2n = 58, FN = 82; Bonvicino et al., 1998a) from O. russatus (2n = 80, FN = 86; Silva et al., 2000) recommend specific recognition. Allied to O. intermedius (= O. russatus) according to Thomas (1901b) and with the O. nitidus group sensu Musser et al. (1998)
