Northern palm squirrel

The northern palm squirrel (''Funambulus pennantii'') also called the five-striped palm squirrel is a species of rodent in the Sciuridae family.
==Distribution==
It is found in the Andaman Islands, Nicobar Islands (where it is introduced), India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Iran. In India, it is fairly common in urban areas, even in large cities such as Delhi and Kolkata. Two subspecies, ''Funambulus pennantii argentescens'' and ''Funambulus pennantii lutescens'', were suggested by Wroughton in addition to the nominate race; however, more recent workers do not make this distinction.
Thorington and Hoffman in Wilson and Reeder (2005) listed only two subspecies: ''F. p. pennantii'' and ''F. p. argentescens''.〔 However, Ghose et al. (2004) described two additional subspecies: ''F. p. chhattisgarhi'' (distribution: eastern part of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa, West Bengal and Bihar) and ''F. p. gangutrianus'' (distribution: West Bengal, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Nepal),〔Ghose, R. K., Mandal, A. K. and Ghose, P. S. (2004). A contribution to the taxonomy of Indian five striped squirrel Funambulus pennanti, Wroughton), with description of two new subspecies. ''Rec. zool. Surv. India'', 102 (3–4): 89–103〕 but Talmale (2007) treated the Maharashtra populations as ''F. p. pennantii'' only due to the overlapping in measurements and colour variations observed in the specimens.〔Talmale, S.S. (2007). Studies on Small Mammal Diversity in Maharashtra State. PhD. Thesis submitted to University of Pune, Maharashtra State, India.〕 It has also been introduced to Irian Jaya, Papua New Guinea, New Britain, New Ireland, New Caledonia, Pohnpei, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Nauru, Vanuatu and Australia where it is found in Perth, Western Australia, establishing from zoo escapees.〔Long, J. L. (2003). Introduced Mammals of the World: Their History, Distribution and Influence. Csiro Publishing, Collingwood, Australia. ISBN 9780643099166〕
In India, the southern boundary of the species' range is not clearly identified, and recent records suggest it may extend as far as Madanapalli. The southern boundary on the Western Ghats side clearly extends to localities including Dharwar and Mysore, in Karnataka.〔Pradhan, M.S. and Kurup, G.U. (2001). Mammalia IN ''Fauna of Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. Fauna of conservation Area Series 11.'' Publ: Director, Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata: 311-330.〕
