The Delicate Slender Opossum, "Marmosops parvidens", is a small pouchless marsupial of the family Didelphidae that occurs in French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, and adjacent Venezuela and Brazil. "Marmosops pinheiroi", "Marmosops bishopi" and "Marmosops juninensis" had long been considered to represent the same species, until "parvidens" and "pinheiroi" were found in sympatry in French Guiana.
