Xerus erythropus
The striped ground squirrel (''Xerus erythropus'') is a species of squirrel native to Africa. It was first described by Geoffroy in 1803,〔〔 but the original publication may be unavailable, so that the binomial authority is today more often cited as "Desmarest, 1817".〔
==Description==
Striped ground squirrels are moderately large ground squirrels, ranging from in length, with a tail that, at , is nearly as long as the body. Adults weigh between . They have a coat of short, bristly fur, and are pale sandy to dark brown across most of the body, with whitish, nearly hairless, underparts. A narrow stripe of pure white fur runs down the flanks from the shoulders to the hips. The tail has hairs much longer than those on the body, which fan out to the sides, and are multi-coloured along their length, presenting a grizzled appearance. The ears are small, and the muzzle long, with a projecting, almost pointed, nose. The limbs are pale, with large feet and long, straight, claws. They can be distinguished from the otherwise similar Cape and mountain ground squirrels by the fact that female striped ground squirrels possess three pairs of teats, rather than just two.
