Khartoum gerbil

Mammals

The Khartoum gerbil (Dipodillus stigmonyx) is a gerbil found mainly in Sudan. Its Wikipedia article cites an IUCN Red List entry titled Gerbillus stigmonyx, which shows that the species has also been placed in the genus Gerbillus, and that entry lists the species as data deficient, meaning there is too little information to judge how threatened it is. The article also cites Musser and Carleton in Mammal Species of the World as its taxonomic reference. It gives no measurements, habitat, diet or breeding details, so this entry records the identity, the main country of its range and the data deficient listing, and leaves the rest open.
