Discussion: Chrotomys Division. Member of the Philippine Old Endemics ( Musser and Heaney, 1992). Based strictly upon morphological data, Musser and Heaney (1992) supposed Archboldomys to be most closely related to Crunomys , but phylogenetic analyses of complete mtDNA cytochrome b sequences for 13 of the 16 genera of Philippine murines indicate Archboldomys is a member of a clade that includes Apomys , Chrotomys (including Celaenomys ), and Rhynchomys but not Crunomys ( Jansa and Heaney, 2001) , and chromosomal data does not support a close alliance between Archboldomys and Crunomys ( Rickart and Musser, 1993; Rickart and Heaney, 2002). Reviewed by Rickart et al. (1998).
