As they are one genus, they are very closely related, but as species, they rarely if ever interbreed successfully.
The Atlantic Forest climbing mouse is an arboreal rodent species in the family Cricetidae from South America. It is found in the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil at elevations from sea level to 1500 m. It utilizes the ground more than the understory in isolated forests however this utilization changes in certain areas of the Atlantic Forest where it prefers to use the vegetation canopy. Its karyotype is 2n = 44, FN = 74–80.
The cerrado climbing mouse or long-tailed rhipidomys is an arboreal rodent species in the family Cricetidae from South America. It is found in primary or secondary forests of the cerrado and caatinga in central and eastern Brazil, and has also been seen in the Atlantic Forest. Its karyotype is 2n = 44, FN = 48-52. They are nocturnal animals and can be found in both tree canopies and on the ground.
The Cariri climbing mouse is a partly arboreal rodent species from South America. It is known from two mesic localities in Ceara, northeastern Brazil, within the semiarid caatinga ecoregion. It has been found in areas under cultivation. Cariri is the name of an administrative microregion within the state of Ceará.
The eastern Amazon climbing mouse is a rodent species from South America. It is endemic to central Brazil, where it is found in the eastern fringe of the Amazon rainforest, as well as in gallery forest and tropical dry forest within the cerrado ecoregion. It is often found in areas under cultivation.
The Peruvian climbing mouse or lesser Peruvian rhipidomys, is a South American species of rodent in the family Cricetidae. It is endemic to the eastern slopes of the Andes in central Peru, where it is found at altitudes from 700 to 1,800 metres.
