Notamacropus

Notamacropus
Scientific classification
Kingdom:	Animalia
Phylum:	Chordata
Class:	Mammalia
Infraclass:	Marsupialia
Order:	Diprotodontia
Family:	Macropodidae
Subfamily:	Macropodinae
Genus:	Notamacropus; Dawson & Flannery, 1985

Notamacropus is a genus of small marsupials in the family Macropodidae, commonly known as wallabies (among other species).

In 2019, a reassessment of macropod taxonomy determined that Notamacropus and Osphranter, formerly considered subgenera of Macropus, should be moved to the genus level.^[2] This change was accepted by the Australian Faunal Directory in 2020.^[3]
