Topic: Notamacropus rufogriseus

Hi Chris

Can you add Notamacropus rufogriseus (Desmarest, 1817) with Macropus rufogriseus as a synonym?

According to https://biodiversity.org.au/afd/taxa/Notamacropus "The subgenus Notamacropus was raised to genus level by Jackson & Groves (2015). [Jackson, S. & Groves, C. 2015. Taxonomy of Australian Mammals. Melbourne : CSIRO Publishing pp.520.]"

Re: Notamacropus rufogriseus

Thanks Charlie - I have actually put Notomacropus as a junior synonym for now because all the online catalogues I have checked still list Notomacropus as a subgenus ... and it's easier than adding in all the other names and synonymising, for a non-native escape ;)
