I think the recent posting that "the factual accuracy of this article is disputed" is extreme. What's listed on the page is the most widely used taxonomic hypothesis. Recent molecular data do not support it and suggest that another hypothesis is required (such as what Ucucha lists above). This happens constantly with taxonomies. If we tag all articles where the taxonomy is disputed, those tags will go on almost every page that deals with biological organisms. --[[User:Aranae|Aranae]] 15:08, May 27, 2005 (UTC) |

Shouldn't this article be merged with [[Squirrel]]? They seem to be about the same animal.[[Special:Contributions/220.76.15.231|220.76.15.231]] ([[User talk:220.76.15.231|talk]]) 04:35, 4 July 2008 (UTC) |

2005 comment
I think is a bad article. The classification is a bad one. Current classification includes the Petauristinae among the Sciurinae and instead uses the subfamilies Sciurillinae, Ratufinae, Xerinae and Callosciurinae. Ucucha See Mammal Taxonomy 16:07, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
