Discussion: Tribe Funambulini according to Moore (1959). Raised to full generic rank by Thomas (1897 b). This treatment follows Amtmann (1975), and Kingdon (1997). Recent molecular work suggests that Funisciurus is not closely related to Funambulus ( Mercer and Roth, 2003) . Instead, it should be considered a member of the Tribe Protoxerini , according to Steppan et al. (2004).
