It was thought to be a subspecies of the short-eared rock-wallaby (P. brachyotis) found in the Kimberley (Western Australia), but recent genetic and morphological studies have shown it to be distinct.[1] Wilkins' rock-wallaby is smaller, has more distinct grey/brown markings on its head and sides, and more colourful limbs than the western species.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite web|last1=Potter|first1=Sally|title=Hiding in plain sight: a new marsupial species for Australia|url=http://australianmuseum.net.au/blogpost/Science/AMRI-Hiding-in-plain-sight|publisher=The Australian Museum|accessdate=8 January 2015|date=22 December 2014}}
