The three-striped ground squirrel (Lariscus insignis) is a species of rodent in the family Sciuridae, the squirrel family, within the order Rodentia and the class Mammalia. It belongs to the genus Lariscus, and its authority citation, F. Cuvier, 1821, is written in parentheses, which in zoological naming shows that the species was first described under a different genus and later moved. The species is found in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. The English Wikipedia article is a short stub that gives the range and the family and cites the treatment of the family Sciuridae by Thorington and Hoffman in the 2005 edition of Mammal Species of the World, so little more about its habits or numbers is recorded in the sources used here.
