	ADW: Petaurus australis: Information
		Petaurus australis occurs in native eucalypt forests along the eastern and southeastern coasts of Australia in Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria.
		Petaurus australis lives in coastal and open foothill forest and woodland, and in wet eucalypt forests.
		Since Petaurus australis is strongly tied to certain species of eucalypt trees, removal or damage to these trees results in habitat reduction.

	Mahogany glider - Petaurus gracilis: More Information - ARKive
		Mahogany gliders were first described in 1883 but for over 100 years were thought to be a subspecies of the more common, squirrel glider (Petaurus norfolcensis) (6).
		The glider was only ‘rediscovered' in the wild in 1989, having been elevated to species level in 1993 following the examination of skins and skulls of old and recently discovered specimens (6).

		The 27 chapters in "Part One" alternate narrators, with the odd numbered chapters being told from the perspective of Kour'el who initially appears to be a young girl, one without memories and, therefore, ignorant about the reasons for her imprisonment in a tower.
		Maighdlin, a 14-year old girl, and her GrandDa, Petaurus, advance the action in the even numbered chapters wherein readers learn that a once happy and prosperous kingdom has fallen on hard times since its beloved king was grievously injured.
		Kour'el is not what she originally appears to be (a surprise I'll leave for your reading), but she and ApiNaga were also on a quest, one which overlaps with that of Petaurus and Brede.

		However, in the apparent absence of further specimens to examine, it came to be regarded as a subspecies of the more common squirrel glider, Petaurus norfolcensis and was "lost" as a species for 100 years.
		Based on a reexamination of old skins in 1986, it was again elevated to the status of a full species, and living animals were found in the wild in 1989.

	A guide to medicine and surgery in sugar gliders
		The sugar glider is in the family Petauridae, which comprises striped possums (Dactylopsila trivirgata), Leadbeater's possums (Gymnobelideus leadbeateri), and wristwinged gliders (Petaurus species).
		There are seven species in the genus Petaurus, of which four are found in Australia-sugar gliders (Petaurus breviceps; Figure 1), squirrel gliders (Petaurus norfolcensis), mahogany gliders (Petaurus gracilis), and yellowbellied gliders (Petaurus australis).
		Sugar gliders, the most widespread and smallest members of the Petaurus species, are arboreal, volant (capable of flight), and nocturnal animals that normally live in eucalyptus forests in northern and eastern Australia and New Guinea.

		The Sugar Glider (Petaurus breviceps) is a gliding possum from the genus Petaurus, belonging to the family Petauroidea.
		Petaurus (pronounced pet-or’-us) means rope-dancer and breviceps (pronounced brev’-ee-seps) means short-headed.
		It is intermediate in size, found in between the tiny Feathertail Glider and the much larger Greater Glider.

	Sugar glider, Petaurus breviceps (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The sugar glider or "flying squirrel", Petaurus breviceps (family Petauridae), is a smallish blue-grey to brown-grey marsupial.
		It has membranes on each side of the body from the fifth finger to the first toe which it extends to glide from tree to tree.
		They usually live in social groups of up to seven adults and vigorously defend their clan territory.

		Mahogany gliders, Petaurus gracilis, and sugar gliders, Petaurus breviceps, were trapped in an area of open woodland in north Queensland between 1994 and 1996 to examine their population ecology and life history.
		This study area contained two smaller areas, one consisting of continuous habitat and the other an area of fragmented habitat adjacent to the continuous habitat.
		The sugar glider was able to raise two litters of young within a single year whereas a second litter was raised by the mahogany glider only if the first litter was lost.

	The Mahogany Glider
		The Mahogany glider Petaurus gracilis was officially described in 1883 by Charles De Vis.
		In his description De Vis described the Mahogany glider as intermediate in size between Squirrel Glider, Petaurus norfolcensis and the Yellow-bellied glider, Petaurus australis.
		Finally in the early hours of December 6 1989 living specimens of Petaurus gracilis were located on freehold land at Barrett's Lagoon (18o02'S, 145o58'E) 14km southeast of Tully.

		Sugar Gliders are generally found in the same region as Acacia Gum and Eucalyptus trees, as that is what they typically eat.
		The scientific name of the Sugar Glider is Petaurus Breyiceps, which means "short-headed rope-dancer", referring to how it moves on the branches high up in the trees.
		Sugar Gliders communicate through a variety of calls, including a sharp shriek emitted during fights and a shrill yapping when a predator is nearby.
