The genus Bibimys is very diverse and poorly understood. Trapping members of this genus is difficult and for that reason, many specimens are very old and badly preserved. Currently, there are only three species of Bibimys, however, the validity of the three species, Bibimys chacoensis, Bibimys labiosus, and Bibimys torresi, has not been researched extensively.
