Morphological characters
The five newly collected specimens from Mt Oku are identical: uniform grey colour and relatively short tail. They are characterized by a medium size and tympanic bullae inflated in the mastoid region. The same characteristics are found in G. lorraineus . Eisentraut (1968) mentioned the presence of G. haedulus Dollman, 1912 in Oku. This species is now considered as a synonym of G. lorraineus ( Holden 2005) . Graphiurus lorraineus was already reported in Mt Lefo, Mt Oku and Mt Cameroon by Eisentraut (1973) while G. crassicaudatus is known from the Rumpi Hills. The external dimensions of our specimens are provided in Table 6.
