Callosciurus is a Southeast Asian genus of squirrels. Several of the species have settled on small islands, and have developed separate subspecies. In total, the genus contains 14 species and up to 300 subspieces or varieties. The genera Glyphotes, Rubrisciurus, and Tamiops are sometimes also included in Callosciurus.
Several species are very colourful; in fact, they belong to the most colourful mammals. The Pallas's squirrel has an unremarkable olive green back, but its belly is bright red. The Prevost's squirrel has a black back, white sides, and red-brown underside. The Finlayson's squirrel occurs in three varieties: red-brown, black, and pure white. The length of these squirrels is between 15 and 25 cm, not including the 8 to 25 cm long tail.
