Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 9, 7: 246. Type Locality: Indonesia, SW Sulawesi, Mt Bonthain (Gunung Lampobatang), 2000 ft (610 m). Vernacular Names: Southwestern Xanthurus Rat. Synonyms: Rattus foramineus Sody 1941. Distribution: SW Sulawesi: 600-2500 m on the slopes of Gunung Lampobatang and adjacent coastal lowlands. Conservation: IUCN – Vulnerable as R. bontanus , Lower Risk (nt) as R. foramineus . Discussion: Rattus xanthurus species group. Sody (1941) questionably included this species in Taeromys , Laurie and Hill (1954) and Musser (1984) treated it as a subspecies of R. xanthurus , but Musser and Holden (1991) contended that it is a distinct species most closely related to R. foramineus , which occurs in coastal lowlands of the southern end of the SW peninsula of Sulawesi and is represented only by four modern specimens (Sody, 1941) and subfossil fragments from a few localities (Musser, 1984; Musser and Holden, 1991). Recent morphometric analyses reveal that foramineus is a lowland population of R. bontanus , which has external and morphological traits that distinguish it from any other species in the R. xanthurus group of Sulawesi (Musser, ms). Sody described pelurus from Pulau Peleng as a subspecies of R. foramineus , but the Peleng Isl rat is a separate species (Musser and Holden, 1991; see that account).
