Mahogany glider
The mahogany glider (''Petaurus gracilis'') is an endangered gliding possum〔(Recovery of the Threatened Mahogany Glider ) — Australian Government publication .pdf file〕 native to a small region of coastal Queensland in Australia.
==Appearance==
A nocturnal〔 arboreal marsupial, the mahogany glider closely resembles the sugar glider, the squirrel glider and the yellow-bellied glider,〔(Mahogany Glider ) - Arkive〕 but is noticeably larger than any of its relatives (26.5 cm long and 410 g)〔(Mahogany Glider ) — Department of Environment, Australian Government〕 and long tail (34–40 cm). The species gets its common name from its mahogany-brown belly and the similar colour of its patagium, or gliding membrane. Unlike related gliders, it has a golden mendulla section, rather than grey. The tail is covered in short hair, and is black on the underside.〔

However, despite their similar apparent size, the females, at , are much more lightly built than the males, which weigh between .
