Woods, C.A.; Kilpatrick, C.W. (2005). "Infraorder Hystricognathi". In Wilson, D.E.; Reeder, D.M (eds.). Mammal Species of the World: A Taxonomic and Geographic Reference (3rd ed.). Johns Hopkins University Press. p. 1561. ISBN 978-0-8018-8221-0. OCLC 62265494.

for the Argentine tuco-tuco, Ctenomys argentinus (the chapter link goes to the MSW3 web page for the species entry, while the title link goes to the Google Books preview for MSW3).

An optional |ref= parameter is supported but seldom used. It allows specification of reference names in Harvard references, for use in the {{citation}} template family. For example, use of |ref={{harvid}} or |ref={{SfnRef}} templates enables subsequent use of short-format templates like {{harvnb}} or {{sfn}} (see Yarkand hare and Long-tailed vole for examples of usage).
