Comment:
Status: IUCN - Endangered
Comment:
Comments: Considered by Thomas (1909b:547) to be the smallest in body size of the East African Tachyoryctes and occurring 'quite close' to the two largest (T. annectens and T. storeyi). 'Its small size and flattened skull will readily separate it from any other form' (Thomas, 1909b). See Hollister (1919) for notes on habitat and collection localities
