White-striped Dorcopsis

The white-striped dorcopsis is endemic to New Guinea; its range includes much of the northern parts of Indonesian Papua (predominantly in Papua and some parts of Highland Papua) and Papua New Guinea but it is absent from the Huon Peninsula. It is present at altitudes of up to about 400 metres (1,300 ft) above sea level. It lives in both primary and secondary tropical forests and is tolerant of some degree of habitat degradation. In the northern part of its range it is found in alluvial fans at the edge of the Sepik floodplains. In the southern part of its range it is found in mixed alluvial forest but is absent from even the lowest part of hill forests.
