Desmodilliscus braueri Wettstein 1916 View in CoL , Anz. Akad. Wiss. Wien, 53: 153.

Type Locality: Sudan, south of El Obeid.

Vernacular Names: Pouched Gerbil.

Synonyms: Desmodilliscus buchanani Thomas and Hinton 1920 ; Desmodilliscus fuscus Setzer 1969 .

Distribution: Recorded from Sahelian savanna in N and C Sudan, N Cameroon, S Niger, N Nigeria, C Mali, N Burkina Faso ( Gautun et al., 1985), Senegal ( Ba et al., 2000; Duplantier and Granjon, 1992), and W Mauritania (overall distributions reviewed by Hutterer and Dieterlen [1986] and Dobigny et al. [2002 b]).

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Taxonomically reviewed by Setzer (1969), who recognized three subspecies. A subsequent analysis of geographic distribution and variation in morphometric traits was provided by Hutterer and Dieterlen (1986), who noted the lack of significant sexual and geographic variation in the species. Notes on behavior, distribution, and population dynamics offered by Poulet (1984). Karyotype (2n = 76, FNa = 104) from Niger ( Dobigny et al., 2002 a) differs in diploid number (2n = 78) from a Senegal sample ( Granjon et al., 1992).
