Distribution of L. ahmansonorum[1] |
Ahmanson's sportive lemur (Lepilemur ahmansonorum), or the Tsiombikibo sportive lemur, is a sportive lemur endemic to Madagascar. It is a relatively small sportive lemur with a total length of about 47 to 54 cm (19 to 21 in), of which 23–25 cm (9.1–9.8 in) are tail.[4] Wright's sportive lemur is found in western Madagascar, living in dry forests .[4]
The species was originally named L. ahmansoni, but the name was found to be incorrectly formed and was corrected to L. ahmansonorum in 2009.[5]
