Anderson's squirrel is an arboreal tree squirrel of southwestern China and adjoining Myanmar. Its scientific name refers to the longitudinal striping visible on the body, which helps distinguish it from several similarly built Callosciurus squirrels. Published species-level information is limited, but available accounts place it in tropical and subtropical forest, where it uses the trees rather than the ground as its principal living space.
