Taxonomic remark Authority cited elsewhere as F. Cuvier, 1825. This genus possibly dates from F. Cuvier, 1823. Mem. Mus. Hist. Hat. Paris, 9:427, 433-435, where Sphiggurus seems only a French name "Sphiggure" except on pp. 433-434, where it is abbreviated "S. spinosa". Formerly included in Coendou. (Wilson & Reeder, 2005).
