Whitish dwarf squirrel

Mammals

The whitish dwarf squirrel (Prosciurillus leucomus) is a species of rodent in the family Sciuridae and belongs to the genus Prosciurillus. It is endemic to Indonesia, where it is found on Sulawesi, Buton Island, Muna Island, Kabeana Island and adjacent islands to the southeast of Sulawesi. It was described by Salomon Muller and Hermann Schlegel in 1844. The article is short and gives no account of its habitat, diet, behaviour or population, so those facts remain to be filled from other sources; the entry is placed here on the strength of its stated family, genus and island range.
