Pithecheirops
The Bornean pithecheirops (Pithecheirops otion), or Emmons's tree rat, is a species of rodent found in Borneo. It is monotypic in the genus Pithecheirops. Pithecheirops is closely related to the genus Pithecheir, and the name is derived from Pithecheir and the Greek ops, meaning "resembling". The only known example of this species was caught in the Danum Valley Field Centre in Sabah, north Borneo, at approximately 150 m.
