discussion
Discussion: Type species of Gyomys. External, cranial, and dental morphology, along with electrophoretic data and spermatozoal anatomy, pointed to a close relationship between P. novaehollandiae and P. pilligaensis (Breed, 1983; Briscoe et al., 1981). Wilson and Roede (1997) described how populations can be sampled using hair sampling tubes. Reviewed by Watts and Aslin (1981) and Kemper (1995 b). Distribution and its correlation with vegetation type in Victoria documented by Lock and Wilson (1999).
