Comment:
Status: IUCN - Vulnerable as Gerbillus maghrebi
Comment:
Comments: Subgenus Dipodillus. A distinctive Moroccan endemic unrelated to D. simoni as Schlitter and Setzer (1972) proposed, but instead phylogenetically linked to D. campestris according to Lay (1983). Aulagnier et al. (1993) documented detailed cranial and dental comparisons between samples of D. maghrebi and those of sympatric D. campestris. Reviewed by Pavlinov et al. (1990)
