may represent a species complex. In particular, the population from Ethiopia occurs in different habitat and elevations compared with populations elsewhere in its distribution and may represent a distinct species. Taxonomic significance of geographical variation in pelage also needs to be investigated. Monotypic.

Head-body 47-80 mm, tail 64-101 mm, ear 7-18 mm, hindfoot 14— 20 mm; weight 4-11 g. The Chestnut African Climbing Mouse is small, with a very long prehensile tail. Tail is darker above than below. Fur is long, soft, and bright chestnutbrown dorsally and pure white ventrally; some populations have grayish ventral pelage. Base of each dorsal hair is dark gray. Thin or faint mid-dorsal stripe extends from neck to base oftail, which is absent in populations with grayish ventral pelage. Ears are relatively large and rounded. Limbs are adapted for climbing. Second to fourth digits of forelimbs have elongated claws, and first and fifth digits are greatly reduced. Hindlimb has second to fourth digits elongated, fifth digit long and opposable with a claw, and first digit greatly reduced.

|
||
Various grasslands and savannas, especially at elevations below 1000 m (except in Ethiopia). Vegetation cover immediately above the ground appears to be important to the Chestnut African Climbing Mouse. In Swaziland, tall Hyperthelia-Hyparrhenia grassland is favored, but it also occurs in thick tangles adjacent to wetlands and edges of Afro-montane forest.

In Zimbabwe, young Chestnut African Climbing Mice have been observed in nests during the rainy season. They build grass nests with multiple entrances, usually placed c.1 m aboveground in tall grass or a bush clump. They also use old bird nests, especially of the family

The Chestnut African Climbing Mouse is nocturnal. It forages both terrestrially and on grass stalks and low bushes. In Swaziland, pairs were regularly captured in the same trap, suggesting that they forage together.
