Callosciurus notatus
Medium sized squirrel about 20cm long and the same again for the tail but can be larger. Grey brown on dorsal surface but a foxy red belly and distinct black stripe along the flanks with white pinstripe above that.
Common throughout Singapore in parks and gardens as well as forests and even mangroves. This one seen in Singapore Botanic Gardens in the central city.
A lovely squirrel to look at. Its Latin name for the genus, Callosciurus means "beautiful squirrels".
