Definition and diagnosis of a new tribe of sigmodontine rodents (Cricetldae: Sigmodontinae), and a revised classification of the subfamily

A new tribe of sigmodontine rodents is formally defined and diagnosed. The tribe contains the extant genera Abrothrix (including Chroeomys), Chelemys, Geoxus, Pearsonomys, and Notiomys, a group of taxa distributed in the central and southern Andes and lowlands both east and west of the cordillera.
