Monito del Monte
The single living genus and species, Dromiciops australis, occurs only from the vicinity of Concepciуn south to Chiloe Island in south-central Chile and east to slightly beyond the Argentine border in the mountains. This genus often has been placed in the family Didelphidae, but available evidence now indicates that it is distinct from that group and is more appropriately referred to the Microbiotheriidae, an otherwise extinct family of New World marsupials (Kirsch and Calaby 1977).
