Angola Water Rat
Hind feet - 5 toes - all with white claws,
pads brown, feet with light hair.
Mammas - 6 (2pect., 4 ing).
Personal Notes
The only place I ever collected this
species was at Levanahya, Northern
Rhodesia. The habitat was the
swampy, highgrass dam areas so common in this Copperbelt country.
I only caught several specimens
so they seemed to be quite scarce
or fairly hard to catch.
