The punaré are all found in the genus Thrichomys. They are South American rodents in the family Echimyidae.[1] It contains at least five species, found in Bolivia, Brazil and Paraguay.[2][3] They are as follows:
- Common punaré (Thrichomys apereoides)
- Highlands punaré (Thrichomys inermis)
- Paraguayan punaré (Thrichomys pachyurus)
- Thrichomys laurentius
- Thrichomys fosteri
Phylogeny
The genus Thrichomys shares evolutionary affinities with two pairs of Myocastorini genera: Callistomys (the painted tree-rat) and Myocastor (the coypu or nutria) on the one hand, and Hoplomys (the armored rat) and Proechimys on the other hand.
