Abstract

The Rufous Tree Rat Diplomys labilis is distributed from southwestern Costa Rica to northern Ecuador. We report the first 2 records of this species from southern Nicaragua, extending the known geographical distribution for the species about 280 km northward from its nearest known locality, in Costa Rica. We provide photos of both Nicaraguan individuals, which were observed almost a year apart in the same locality, the Refugio Bartola Private Reserve, Río San Juan Department.
