New arrival - stuffed ribboned rope squirrel (Funisciurus lemniscatus Le Conte, 1857)

(Funisciurus lemniscatus Le Conte, 1857)

A stuffed ribboned rope squirrel (Funisciurus lemniscatus Le Conte, 1857) shows us an animal which belongs to a species of rodent in the family Sciuridae. Representatives of this species are found in Cameroon, the Republic of the Congo, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Equatorial Guinea. Their natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.

This animal is certainly rare for the collections of Russian museums. It was brought from an expedition to Cameroon by museum taxidermist Oksana Mbita Ebele.
