Abstract :
The five-toed Jerboa genus Allactaga includes 12 morphospecies, the majority of which were described in the 19th century. Five morphospecies are native to Iran, including A. elater (Lichtenstein, 1828), A. williamsi Thomas, 1897, A. hotsoni Thomas, 1920, A. firouzi Womochel, 1978, and A. toussi Darvish et al., 2008. However, Shenbrot (2009) determined, by multivariate analysis, that A. firouzi is synonymous with A. hotsoni.
