Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| S. T. Turvey et al. 2015 | Subspecies of Hispaniolan hutia which is significantly larger than the closely related Plagiodontia aedium aedium in the following craniodental characters: maximum interorbital width, minimum anterior interorbital width, length and width of incisive foramina, external width across bony palate at PM4, crown width of PM4, M1 and M2, crown length of M3, crown width of pm4 and m1, coronoid–condyle length, and coronoid–angular length. Significantly larger than P. aedium hylaeum in width of incisive foramina and crown length of M2, and somewhat larger than this subspecies in crown length of M3, height of toothrow at pm4, and coronoid–condyle length. Postcranial and soft-tissue differences between all three subspecies are unknown. |
