%X Thirty-six Australian rodent specimens are mentioned in J. E. Gray&apos;s List of the specimens of Mammalia in the collection of the British Museum published in 1843. Twenty-nine of these have been located in the British Museum (Natural History). Information given for the Australian rodent specimens of Gray&apos;s List in the British Museum (Natural History) Catalogue of Mammalia IV. Glires, and Registers, and on labels with the twenty-nine specimens in the British Museum (Natural History), is recorded. The latter specimens are re-identified. Some of the thirty-six specimens are discussed. Thomas&apos;s lectotype selection for Mus greyii Gray, 1841 is invalid and a lectotype is selected for that taxon. The lectotype of Mus greyii Gray, 1841 and the holotype of Pseudomys australis Gray, 1832 are illustrated.
