Woolley's three-striped dasyure (Myoictis leucura) is a member of the order Dasyuromorphia. This marsupial carnivore lives in Papua New Guinea.

This species inhabits primary montane forest. Like its congeners, it is thought[by whom?] to be diurnal and largely terrestrial. Peter Dwyer has noted seeing this species active during daylight hours.
