A new “flying squirrel” (Rodentia: Sciuridae) from the Early Miocene of southwestern Saskatchewan

Abstract: Sciurion campestre, a new genus and species of “flying squirrel”, from the Cypress Hills Formation of southwestern Saskatchewan, is distinct from known North American and European Petauristinae. The fauna with which it is associated indicates a Hemingfordian age. This “flying squirrel” is the oldest known from the Great Plains of North America.
