The [[subfamily]] '''Deomyinae''' consists of four genera of [[mouse]]-like [[rodent]]s that were placed in the subfamilies [[Murinae]] and [[Dendromurinae]] until very recently. They are sometimes called '''Acomyinae''', particularly in references that predate the discovery that the link rat, ''[[Deomys ferugineus]]'', is part of the [[clade]]. Deomyinae is the older name and therefore has priority over Acomyinae.
 
The [[subfamily]] '''Deomyinae''' consists of four [[Genus|genera]] of [[mouse]]-like [[rodent]]s that were previously placed in the subfamilies [[Murinae]] and [[Dendromurinae]].<ref name=chevret1993 >{{cite journal |last1=Chevret |first1=P. |last2=Denys |first2=C. |last3=Jaeger |first3=J.J. |last4=Michaux |first4=J. |last5=Catzeflis |first5=F.M. |date=1993-04-15 |title=Molecular evidence that the spiny mouse (''Acomys'') is more closely related to gerbils (Gerbillinae) than to true mice (Murinae). |url=https://www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.90.8.3433 |journal=Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA |volume=90 |issue=8 |pages=3433–3436 |doi=10.1073/pnas.90.8.3433 |pmc=46314 }}</ref><ref name=steppan2004 >{{cite journal |last1=Steppan |first1=Scott J. |last2=Adkins |first2=Ronald M. |last3=Anderson |first3=Joel |year=2004 |title=Phylogeny and Divergence-Date Estimates of Rapid Radiations in Muroid Rodents Based on Multiple Nuclear Genes |url=https://academic.oup.com/sysbio/article/53/4/533/1645071 |journal=Systematic Biology |volume=53 |issue=4 |pages=533–553 |doi=10.1080/10635150490468701 }}</ref> They are sometimes called the '''Acomyinae''', particularly in references that antedate the discovery that the link rat, ''[[Deomys ferugineus]]'', is part of the [[clade]].

Deomyines share no [[morphology (biology)|morphological]] characteristics that can be used to separate them from other [[Muroidea|muroids]], though subtle aspects of the third upper [[Molar (tooth)|molar]] have been suggested. This [[subfamily]] is united solely on the basis of shared [[gene]]tic mutations.

Because of the lack of physical characteristics supporting this group, it is very possible that the [[subfamily]] as it is currently recognized is subject to enlargement.
