Hybomys Badius
Eisentraut's striped mouse or Eisentraut's hybomys (''Hybomys badius'') is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found only in Cameroon. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss Habitat destruction (also termed habitat loss or habitat reduction) occurs when a natural habitat is no longer able to support its native species. The organisms once living there have either moved elsewhere, or are dead, leading to a decrease .... References *Musser, G. G. and M. D. Carleton. 2005.

Miller's Striped Mouse
Miller's striped mouse or the Liberian forest hybomys (''Hybomys planifrons'') is a species of rodent in the family Muridae. It is found in Ivory Coast, Guinea, Liberia, and Sierra Leone. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical dry forest, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forest, and subtropical or tropical moist montane forest Montane ecosystems are found on the slopes of mountains. The alpine climate in these regions strongly affects the ecosystem because temperatures lapse rate, fall as elevation increases, causing the ecosystem to stratify. This stratification is ....
