Mindanao treeshrew
Species of mammal
The Mindanao treeshrew (Tupaia everetti), also called the Philippine tree shrew, is a species of treeshrew endemic to the Mindanao region in the Philippines.[2] It was formerly considered the only member of the genus Urogale,[1] but that genus was merged into Tupaia when the species was found to nest within the latter genus in a molecular phylogeny.[5] The scientific name commemorates British colonial administrator and zoological collector Alfred Hart Everett.
