The Uinta chipmunk,〔 or hidden forest chipmunk〔 (''Neotamias umbrinus''), is a species of chipmunk, in the family Sciuridae. It is endemic to the United States. Formerly known as ''Tamias umbrinus'',〔 phylogenetic studies have shown it to be sufficiently distinct from the eastern chipmunk as to be placed in a separate genus, ''Neotamias''. The same studies have also suggested that Palmer's chipmunk may actually be a subspecies of Uinta chipmunk, although the two are still generally regarded as separate species. ==Description== The Uinta chipmunk is a medium-sized chipmunk, with adults ranging from in length, including the tail, and weighing an average of . The predominant color of the summer coat varies from yellowish brown-grey to dark brown, often with a reddish tinge. Three wide, distinct dark blackish-brown stripes run down the back, separated and surrounded by four paler stripes of pale grey to white fur. There are also three dark and three pale stripes on each side of the face. In the winter, the coat becomes duller and more greyish, and the stripes become less distinct. The ears are black, and the underparts a very pale grey. The tail has orange and black fur, with a paler fringe of hair on the underside.
