Ctenomys talarum is a South American rodent found only in eastern Argentina. They are also known as Talas tuco-tucos. Three subspecies are morphologically similar and are distinguished only by the specific region which each occupies: C. t. occidentalis along the eastern border of the province of La Pampa; C. t. recessus along the southern coast; and C. t. talarum along the eastern coast of the province of Buenos Aires.
