Plantain Squirrels travel and feed mainly in small trees. In lowland dipterocarp forests in Ulu Gombak Forest Reserve (Selangor, Malaysia), they are most active in the early morning, with activity tapering off by 10: 00 h, then increasing again from 16: 00 - 18: 00 h. They appear to avoid the ground, are most frequently observed at heights between 6 - 10 m, and are seldom seen above 20 m in the trees. In Krau Wildlife Reserve, this species moves about from ground level to 24 m, but it is most commonly seen between 6 — 12 m.","source":"Sciuridae","sourceTaxonKey":197542513},{"key":448862785,"taxonKey":2437396,"type":"biology_ecology","language":"eng","description":"Habitat. Mangrove and swamp forests, gardens, plantations, secondary forests, and fringe habitats. The Plantain Squirrelis usually rare or absent in tall dipterocarp forests; it can survive in monoculture plantations.

Population density of the Plantain Squirrel is 5 - 3 ind / km? in Ulu Mudah Forest Reserve (Kedah, Malaysia) and 8 - 1 ind / km? in Kayan Mentarang National Park (East Kalimantan, Borneo), but 244 ind / km? in Krau Wildlife Reserve (Pahang, Malaysia). Home ranges differ between males and females: 0 - 7 ha in males, with extensive overlaps between males and between males and females; and 1 - 8 ha in females, with no overlap between them, in Ulu Gombak Forest Reserve. The Plantain Squirrel responds to terrestrial predators with a repeated staccato bark and tail flicking, to which other conspecific squirrels react by climbing upward and remaining quiet. Response to an aerial predator is a soft “ chuckle, ” unless predator is close, in which case the squirrel gives a “ rattle ” vocalization. Conspecifics react to the latter by freezing and, if nearby, by also giving a rattle call. This call is used more generally for a close encounter with a terrestrial predator. Snakeselicit squeak alarm calls, causing other squirrels to join in mobbing the snake.","source":"Sciuridae","sourceTaxonKey":197542513},{"key":448862787,"taxonKey":2437396,"type":"breeding","language":"eng","description":"Breeding. The nest of the Plantain Squirrel is spherical in shape, with a poorly defined lateral entrance. It consists of a firm outer wall of twigs or leaves and is lined with fibrous material, such as shredded palm spathe. It is usually placed in the upper branches of a large bush or small tree. In Ulu Gombak Forest Reserve, females mate with 2 - 4 males during a period of 6 - 7 hours, with 5 - 7 males attending. After mating, a male gives a post-copulatory bark for 0 - 5 - 8 minutes. Between 1948 and 1952 in Ulu Gombak Forest Reserve (Malaysia), females were pregnant in every month ofthe year, with the fewest in October-December (8 %) and the most in April-June (29 %). Litter size was 1 - 4, with a mean of 2 - 2 young (n = 25 litters).","source":"Sciuridae","sourceTaxonKey":197542513},{"key":448862788,"taxonKey":2437396,"type":"conservation","language":"eng","description":"Status and Conservation.

The Plantain Squirrel is a red-bellied squirrel, with brown dorsum, orange or reddish-todeep chestnut venter, and two lateral stripes of white over black. Nominate subspecies notatus has a slight suffusion of buff on venter. Subspecies albescens is a paler form and is sometimes considered a distinct species. Subspecies diardii has buff on venter and around eye; it is darker in eastern part ofits distribution. Subspecies miniatus has a gray venter with a slight brown to dull orange brown tinge; pale flank stripe is narrow. Tip of tail is reddish brown, particularly in western part of its distribution. Subspecies suffusus resembles Malayan forms, but ventral color is a darker chestnut or maroon. Subspecies vittatus resembles miniatus, but venter is usually orange brown, with no red on tail tip.","source":"Sciuridae","sourceTaxonKey":197542513},{"key":448862790,"taxonKey":2437396,"type":"discussion","language":"eng","description":"Six subspecies are recognized.","source":"Sciuridae","sourceTaxonKey":197542513},{"key":448862791,"taxonKey":2437396,"type":"distribution","language":"eng","description":"Subspecies and Distribution.

In the Krau Wildlife Reserve (Pahang, Malaysia), the Plantain Squirrel eats seeds (c. 30 %), fruits (10 %, including some figs), leaves and shoots (25 %), flowers (5 %), bark and sap (25 %), and insects and other arthropods (5 %). In Ulu Gombak Forest Reserve (Selangor, Malaysia), its foods include fruits (43 %), bark (40 %), and a variety of other plant parts, including flowers (4 %) and leaves (1 %) from 16 species of plants. On the island of Borneo, it was recorded feeding on the fruit of Rafflesia keithii (Rafflesiaceae), a parasitic plant with colossal unisexual putrid smelling flowers. Plantain Squirrels commonly remove seeds and fruits from fruiting trees and take them elsewhere. They can be seen carrying fruit while traveling far from any fruitbearing tree: perhaps to feed in a more protected area, perhaps to cache food. They usually eat seeds after feeding on the fruit. They will gnaw cambium of rubber trees and lick latex. They are also known to eat insects; their stomach contents have been reported to be up to one-half insects by bulk.","source":"Sciuridae","sourceTaxonKey":197542513}]}
