Mindanao flying squirrel

Mammals

The Mindanao flying squirrel (Petinomys mindanensis) is a species of flying squirrel that is endemic to the Philippines, and its Wikipedia article describes it as common. It was described by Rabor in 1939. It belongs to Petinomys, a genus of about eight Asian species known as the dwarf flying squirrels, and the genus article lists it beside species such as the Basilan flying squirrel and Temminck's flying squirrel. The International Union for Conservation of Nature assessed it in 2016 as Least Concern. The species article is a single sentence, so its habitat, diet and body size are not stated there and are not claimed here.
