my question[edit]

How could Joel Asaph Allen name this creature in 1925, when he died 4 years earlier in 1921? DenesFeri (talk) 11:39, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not J.A. Allen described the rodent in 1925, but G. M. Allen did. DenesFeri (talk) 11:59, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have a couple suggestions on making your article better.

1) I would put dimensions of the size of the mammal you are describing under physical description so we have a better idea of how big or small it is. 2) uploading a picture would be great to get an idea of what one looks like, but I don't think we have to upload a picture for our assignment.

BISC 350 Mammalogy PEER REVIEW[edit]

Lauren, great job editing the article! It is pretty well detailed and clear, my only suggestion would be to add a picture of the animal and a range map! Jmsmith13 (talk) 22:40, 10 December 2014 (UTC)jmsmith9[reply]
