  • To assess the article quality on FAC criteria 1b and 1c I did a literature search on the topic, and the following relevant sources came up (that are not used in the article). Am wondering if these were consulted (yes, some are in Portuguese):
Actually, one is in Spanish. :-) Most seem to do little or no more than saying that it was found in the same habitat where we already know it is found; I commented on each one individually below.
D'Elia, Guillermo; Mora, Ismael; Myers, Phil, et al. (2008). New and noteworthy records of Rodentia (Erethizontidae, Sciuridae, and Cricetidae) from Paraguay. Zootaxa 1784:39-57
Thanks for reminding me to have a look at that paper. It added some small information, which I added.
Adrian Quintana, Carlos. (2007). Teeth marks of rodents in archaeological sites in the Tandilia mountains, Argentina. Archaeofauna 16:185-191
Doesn't add anything.

Same as for the Zootaxa paper. Didn't add much.
Anonymous. (2005). Phylogenetic analyses of the tribe Oryzomyini (Muroidea: Sigmodontinae) based on morphological and molecular data.Mastozoologia Neotropical 12(1): 107-108
That's a summary of Weksler (2006).

Doesn't add anything to what we have already.
Lessa, Leonardo G.; Talamoni, Sonia A. (2000). New information on range and habitat characteristics of Pseudoryzomys simplex (Rodentia: Muridae) for southeastern Brazil. Bios (Belo Horizonte) 8(8): 19-23
They were quite happy to show that the range of Pseudoryzomys was associated with the cerrado. But we knew that already.
Talamoni, SA; Dias, MM. (1999). Population and community ecology of small mammals in southeastern Brazil. Mammalia 63(2): 167-181
Didn't add anything.
Steppan, Scott J. (1995). Revision of the tribe Phyllotini (Rodentia: Sigmodontinae), with a phylogenetic hypothesis for the Sigmodontinae. Fieldiana Zoology 0(80): I-VI, 1-112
Didn't cover Pseudoryzomys in any depth, only excluded it from Phyllotini, which is already adequately covered by the Voss and Myers and Voss and Carleton references.
Steppan, Scott. (1993). Phylogenetic relationships among the Phyllotini (Rodentia: Sigmodontinae) using morphological characters. Journal of Mammalian Evolution 1(3): 187-213
Same (this is practically speaking an earlier version of the Steppan 1995 paper).

Penis morphology is already covered.

Superseded by Pardinas et al., 2005, who give far more Argentinean localities and far more information.
Massoia E. (1980). The systematic status of the South American Cricetidae and comments on other congeneric taxa. Ameghiniana 17(3): 280-287
Referenced indirectly. Doesn't add anything to what Voss and Myers have to say.

Doesn't add anything to what is already covered about geographic variation.
