Stylodipus Telum
The thick-tailed three-toed jerboa (''Stylodipus telum'') is a species of rodent in the family Dipodidae. It is found in China, Kazakhstan, Russia, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. Its typical habitat is steppe, desert and mountain grassland where it is often found among saltbush and ''Artemisia'' in sandy or clayey soils. Description The thick-tailed three-toed jerboa grows to a length of with a tail as long again and a weight of . The crown of the head is dark-coloured but the rest of the coat is pale greyish-yellow with many longer guard hairs with blackish tips. A white band stretches across the hips and the flanks are straw-coloured with dark flecks. Behaviour The thick-tailed three-toed jerboa is nocturnal and is a solitary animal. It lives in a complex burrow system that may extend for two and a half metres, with many entrances each loosely blocked with a plug of soil. It also has shallow burrows within its home range which may be used by more than one individual an ...

Stylodipus Andrewsi
Andrews's three-toed jerboa, or the Mongolian jerboa, (''Stylodipus andrewsi'') is a species of rodent in the family Dipodidae. It is found in China (Inner Mongolia, Gansu, and Ningxia provinces) and Mongolia. Description Andrews's three-toed jerboa grows to a length of with a tail rather longer than its body and a weight of about . The crown of the head is grey with white spots above the eye and another behind the ear. The rest of the coat is buffish grey. A white band stretches across the hips and the underparts are white. The central toe on the hind foot is the longest and the sole of the foot is haired. The tail is thickened by the adipose tissue beneath the skin and has a flattened, terminal, black bushy section. It can be distinguished from the rather similar thick-tailed three-toed jerboa (''Stylodipus telum'') by the fact that it has premolars in the upper jaw, these being vestigial in ''S. telum''. Behaviour Andrews's three-toed jerboa is nocturnal and is a solitary an ...
