New Guinean long-nosed bandicoot
(Redirected from Peroryctidae)
Template:Short description Template:Automatic Taxobox
The New Guinean long-nosed bandicoots (genus Peroryctes) are members of the order Peramelemorphia. They are small to medium-sized marsupial omnivores native to New Guinea.
Two fossil taxa from Australia, Peroryctes tedfordi and then-unnamed Silvicultor hamiltonensis, were originally assigned to this genus,[1] but they were subsequently transferred to the separate genus Silvicultor.[2]
