Sundasciurus Robinsoni
''Sundasciurus robinsoni'', or Robinson's squirrel, is a species of rodent in the family Sciuridae. It is found in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. The species ''Sundasciurus robinsoni'' has a dorsum that ranges from medium brown with orange agouti to dark brown (''S. r. vanakeni''), and its venter ranges from white to pale yellow/buff white, with a reduction in the extent of this pale coloration and a lack of distinct margins in the case of ''S. r. vanakeni''. Some populations (''S. r. balae'' and ''S. r. vanakeni'') have a grayish ventral coloration in limbs while others do not (''S. r. robinsoni''). It can be easily distinguished from other medium-sized western Sundaland ''Sundasciurus'' based on its ventral coloration and tail. All populations of '' S. fraterculus'' except Siberut Siberut is the largest and northernmost of the Mentawai Islands, located 150 kilometres west of Sumatra in the Indian Ocean. It covers an area of 3,838.25 km2 including smaller offshore isl ...

Sundasciurus Samarensis
The Samar squirrel (''Sundasciurus samarensis'') is a species of rodent in the family Sciuridae. It was historically known as ''lalagsing''. It is endemic to the Philippines, where it has been recorded from Samar and Leyte Islands. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry forests. It is threatened by habitat loss, due to expanding human activities, hunting, and the lack of basic knowledge about the species. They thrive in primary and secondary lowland and montane Montane ecosystems are found on the slopes of mountains. The alpine climate in these regions strongly affects the ecosystem because temperatures fall as elevation increases, causing the ecosystem to stratify. This stratification is a crucial f ... forest, including the lower edges of mossy forest. It is also found in some agricultural areas. References *Thorington, R. W. Jr. and R. S. Hoffman. 2005.
