- Coendou ichillus, the Streaked dwarf porcupine[6]
- Coendou roosmalenorum, the Roosmalen's dwarf porcupine[7]
- Mesomys occultus, the Tufted-tailed spiny tree-rat[8]
- Proechimys echinothrix, the Stiff-spine spiny rat[9][10]
- Proechimys gardneri, the Gardner's spiny rat[9][11]
- Proechimys kulinae, the Kulina spiny rat.[9]
- Proechimys pattoni, the Patton's spiny rat[9]
- Neacomys aletheia, the Upper Juruá bristly mouse[12]
- Neacomys elieceri, the Eliécer's bristly mouse[13]
- Neacomys jau, the Jaú bristly mouse[14]
- Neacomys marajoara, the Marajó bristly mouse[15]
- Neacomys minutus, the Minute bristly mouse[16]
- Neacomys musseri, the Musser's bristly mouse[17]
- Neacomys vossi, the Voss's bristly mouse[18]
- Neacomys xingu, the Xingu bristly mouse[19]
