This Mouse was formerly grouped under the genus Mus, but owing to certain differences in the skull and teeth, it has now been placed in a separate genus, viz. Leggada.
THE LONG-TAILED RAT {Ihamnomys dolichurus) The Long-tailed Rat is found in all parts of Africa, from the Cape Province in the south, to Algeria in the north, wherever the environment is suitable to its arboreal habits. This species of Rat lives in trees, and makes its home in the hollows of the branches and tree-trunks, or in bus
...h-birds' nests. Peters says it carries its young attached to its mammae. This is a habit of several species of rats and mice. The Long-tailed Rat is rich brown on the back, with a reddish tinge posteriorly. Ears almost naiked, large and roundish. Under parts pure white, the fur having no slaty bases ; legs white with a rusty tinge.
Length of head and body about 5 inches ; tail 6J inches.
Genus : Cricetomys There is only one species of rat in this genus. A local race has been fpund to differ slightly, and it, in 132 THE GIANT RAT consequence, has been named a sub-species {Crice- tomys gambianus cunctator).
