Tatera
There are 6 species recorded in Tanzania: Tatera boehmi, Tatera inclusa, Tatera leucogaster, Tatera nigricauda and Tatera valida. These rodents are sometimes called the naked-soled gerbils, because of the lack of hair on the soles of the hind feet. Differentiation among the different species within this genus is difficult.
