ReferenceDiagnosis
M. A. Alvarez Sierra et al. 1991A Peridyromys species with well-developed centrolophs and one or two extra ridges in the upper molars. M2 has a more complex dental pattern than M1 and M3. The ridge pattern in the central valley of the upper molars may be chaotical. The lower molars have one or two extra ridges, which are chaotically arranged in many specimens. m1, m2 and m33 have a comparable complex ridge pattern.
