[Taterillus] lacustris (Thomas and Wroughton 1907) View in CoL , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 7, 19: 37.

Type Locality: Nigeria, Lake Chad (= Kaddai).

Vernacular Names: Lake Chad Tateril.

Distribution: NE Nigeria and Cameroon.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Rosevear (1969) synonymized lacustris with T. gracilis , but both Robbins (1974, 1977) and F. Petter (1975 b) treated it as a distinct species. Analysis of serum proteins pointed to a closer relationship of T. lacustris to T. pygargus rather than T. gracilis ( Tranier et al., 1974) .
