Resumen:
Wedocumented the first record of Andalgalomys pearsoni (Myers 1978) inArgentina based on one individual caught at Cerro Colorado (Metán department,Salta province, Argentina). This new record enlarges the distribution of thisspecies, to date only known from Bolivia and Paraguay, ca. 530 km SW and fillsa gap without records for Andalgalomys of approximately 850 km between Paraguayand NW Argentina. The finding of this mouse, caught more than 50 years ago,highlights the importance that biological collections have in our understandingof biological diversity.
