Temminck's mouse

Mammals

Temminck's mouse, Mus musculoides, is a mouse species in the genus Mus and in the subgenus Nannomys. The English Wikipedia article states that it is found throughout West Africa, Central Africa and East Africa, so its recorded range crosses three regions of the continent rather than being confined to one country or habitat. The article is a brief stub: it gives the species' place in the genus and its broad distribution but does not describe its appearance, diet, habitat or conservation status, so this entry records only what that source supports and leaves the rest open.
