Gerbillus (Hendecapleura) brockmani Thomas 1910 View in CoL , Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 8, 5: 420.

Type Locality: Somalia, Burao, 85 mi (137 km) S Berbera.

Vernacular Names: Brockman's Gerbil.

Distribution: Somalia.

Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).

Discussion: Subgenus Hendecapleura . Petter (1975 b) placed brockmani in synonymy with G. nanus , but no evidence indicates that G. nanus occurs anywhere remotely near Somalia (see Lay, 1983). The phylogenetic affinities of G. brockmani require clarification.
