"Until 2006, its members were included in the genus Oryzomys, but they are not closely related to the type species of that genus," Reading this I wondered what happened in 2006 to make them change their minds. I'd insert "...but phylogenetic analysis showed they are not closely ..."
Good point, changed.
"have been recorded on both species. Both species are "Slightly awkward repetition of words where the sentences meet. Also, "Various external parasites have been recorded on both species." sound slightly.... robotic. How about something along the lines of "Both species are

"but it has again been recognized as a separate species since 1983." Says what paper?
