Taxonavigation
Genus: Bassaricyon
Name
Bassaricyon neblina Helgen & Pinto & Kays & Helgen & Tsuchiya & Quinn & Wilson & Maldonado, 2013 subsp. n. – Wikispecies link – Pensoft Profile
Diagnosis
This subspecies is (in skull length) smaller than Bassaricyon neblina osborni subsp. n., but larger than Bassaricyon neblina hershkovitzi subsp. n. and Bassaricyon neblina ruber subsp. n. (though Bassaricyon neblina ruber subsp. n. is more robust cranially, with a wider skull). It has proportionally very large teeth, especially P4 and the first molars, and a narrow skull, with a narrow and low-domed braincase (Figures 9–10, Table 8). In color it most closely resembles Bassaricyon neblina osborni subsp. n., but is the least rufous of the subspecies, usually with the greatest preponderance of black tipping to the fur (e.g., Figure 13).
Distribution
The nominate subspecies is endemic to Ecuador, where it is recorded from the western slopes of the Andes, in Pichincha and Cotopaxi Provinces, in forests at elevations from 1800 to 2300 m (Figure 16).
Referred specimens
As listed for Bassaricyon neblina, above.
