Seurat's spiny mouse

Mammals

Seurat's spiny mouse, Acomys seurati, is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. According to its Wikipedia article it is found only in Algeria, which makes it a country endemic within the wider range of spiny mice, and its natural habitats are rocky areas and hot deserts. The binomial places it in the genus Acomys. The article is a short stub and gives no figures for body size, lifespan, diet, breeding or population, and no conservation category, so this description records only what is stated: a rodent confined to Algeria that lives among rocks and in hot desert country.
