Biology:Bramus
From HandWiki
Bramus is a genus of fossorial rodents. It formerly contained only the extinct North African species Bramus barbarus.[1] Both species in Bramus were moved to this genus from Ellobius. They differ from Ellobius in being larger, having a distinct sagital crest, and other features of the teeth and skull. They also occur allopatrically from Ellobius. They are sexually dimorphic, with females being larger than males.[2] The genus comprises two extant species:
- Southern mole vole, Bramus fuscocapillus (Blyth, 1843)
- Transcaucasian mole vole, Bramus lutescens (Thomas, 1897)
