Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| C. D. Theocharopoulos 2000 | Medium to large cricetids. Cusps inflated. Small posterosinus in the M1-M2. Ectlophs well developed in the M1-M2 of Karydomys symeonidisi and Karydomys boskosi, but absent in Karydomys zapfei. M3 and m3 very much reduced. Anteroconid low and blade-like and placed very close to the protoconid and metaconid. |
