Description
Gerbillus gerbillus (Olivier, 1801). Bull. Sci. Soc. Philom. Paris, 2: 121.
TYPE LOCALITY: Egypt, Giza Prov.

COMMENT: Includes foleyi and longicaudus (see Petter, 1975, Part 6.3:9), dalloni (see Kock, 1978, Senckenberg. Biol., 58: 126), hirtipes which was formerly included in pyramidum by Petter, 1975, Part 6.3:8 (see Cockrum, 1976, Mammalia, 40:523-524, and Corbet, 1978:121). Lay et al., 1975, Z. Saugetierk., 40: 148, suggested that hirtipes may be a distinct species. Schlitter, 1976, Unpubl. Ph. D. Dissertation, Univ. Maryland, 558 pp., included hirtipes in pyramidum. Formerly included latastei; see Cockrum, 1977, Mammalia, 41:78. Formerly included cheesmani, gleadowi, and sudanensis; see Corbet, 1978:121- 122, Schlitter, 1976, Diss. Abstr. Int., 37(6), Harrison, 1972, The Mammals of Arabia, 3:546, and Kock, 1978, Senckenberg. Biol., 58(3):113. DML considers dalloni and hirtipes distinct species pending revision.
