Published Taxon Remarks:
The host record from the Baluchistan region of Pakistan was reported as Calomyscus baifwardi (Durden et al., 1990: 229) but C. baluchi is the species in that area; C. bailwardi has only been recorded from Iran and its geographic range is parapatric to that of C. baluchi (Musser and Carleton, 1993: 535). [ex. Durden, L. A., Musser, G. G. 1994. Bulletin of the American Museum of Natural History 218: 1-90]
