Chromosomal, genic, and morphologic data were used to reassess the specific status of Onychomys arenicola relative to O. torridus and O. leucogaster at a previously investigated zone of sympatry (Hinesley, 1979). Chromosomal analysis revealed one karyotypic variant in a sample of 28 individuals of all three taxa. This individual exhibited a fundamental number intermediate between O. torridus and O. arenicola based on non-differentially stained karyotypes, suggesting that it might be an F1 hybrid between the latter two taxa. However, estimates of hybridization between these two taxa based on standard karyotypic methods are unreliable, and the systematic status of O. arenicola cannot be determined using standard karyotypic techniques alone (Hinesley, 1979). Electrophoretic analysis of all three species from the zone of sympatry indicates a lack of genic introgression between the three taxa. The one chromosomal variant was genically indistinguishable from O. torridus . Genie, bacular, and cranial analyses support the specific status of O. arenicola , and indicate a closer phylogenetic relationship between O. leucogaster and O. arenicola , than between O. arenicola and its presumed sister taxon, O. torridus .
