Separate catalog of specimens in spirit is included. Specimen collection information consists of date, location, name, notes, number, size, and notes if collected by other expedition participants, often Austin Rand. Noted collection locations are Lake Daviembu, Tarara, Buji, Palmer Junction, Mt. Mabiom, Baruari, Sturt Island, Rona Falls, Itiki, Emoia, Oroville Camp, and Daru.

    Leptomys signatus Tate and Archbold, 1938. Am. Mus. Novit., 982:2. TYPE LOCALITY: Papua New Guinea, Western Prov., Sturt Isl Camp, Fly River (N bank), near Fairfax Isis, sea level. DISTRIBUTION: Known only from the type locality along lower Fly River; limits unknown. COMMENTS: The diagnostic traits Tate and Archbold (1938) used to separate this species from the other two identify a lowland population of Leptomys that shows no morphological intergradation with samples of either L. elegans or L. ernstmayri. This species is still known only by the four examples in the type series.Published as part of Guy G. Musser & Michael D. Carleton, 1993, Order Rodentia - Family Muridae, pp. 501-755 in Mammal Species of the World (2 nd Edition), Washington and London :Smithsonian Institution Press on page 605, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.735309

COMMENTS: Subgenus Uromys.
